Damp-Proof Render in Corby
Specialist waterproof and salt-resistant render systems for damp-affected and below-ground walls.
We carry out damp-proof render across Corby and the surrounding Northamptonshire area throughout the year.
Most of what we see around Corby reflects the wider Northamptonshire pattern — ironstone and limestone villages, Victorian brick and extensive modern development, and lime work on ironstone and monocouche on new-build estates.
Local conditions bring a moderate, drier inland climate, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. The local ironstone is soft and highly porous, and cement render on it traps moisture and accelerates the stone's decay.
When damp-proof render is the right call. Choose a damp-proof system after flooding, alongside DPC works, on below-ground walls, and wherever salt contamination is destroying normal plaster.

FAQs
Damp-Proof Render in Corby
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. Every job carries our workmanship guarantee, and where a full manufacturer-specified system is installed you also get the system warranty on top.
What time of year is best for rendering?
Spring through autumn is ideal. Render should not be applied in frost or in very hot direct sun, so winter work needs protection and settled conditions.
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, with teams across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If we are not the right firm for your location we will tell you rather than waste your time.
