Garden & Boundary Walls in Shifnal
Rendering garden, boundary and retaining walls with correct coping and weathering detail.
We carry out garden & boundary walls across Shifnal and the surrounding Shropshire area throughout the year.
Across Shropshire, timber framing, sandstone cottages and rural farm buildings dominates, and lime render on timber-frame and sandstone in a conservation-heavy county is what we are called out to most often.
Local conditions bring moderate rainfall with exposed upland conditions in the south, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. Ludlow and shrewsbury hold large concentrations of listed timber-framed buildings where only lime specifications will get consent.
When garden & boundary walls is the right call. Choose this for boundary, garden and retaining walls where you want the finish to match the house and actually survive the weather.

FAQs
Garden & Boundary Walls in Shifnal
Can you match my existing render?
Usually, yes. We colour and texture match as closely as we can, though weathered render never matches a fresh batch exactly — we will be honest about how visible a patch will be.
Should both sides of a garden wall be rendered?
Yes, wherever possible. Rendering one face only lets water in through the other and trap it behind the rendered side.
Do retaining walls need special treatment?
Yes. Retaining walls hold back saturated ground, so drainage behind the wall must be working before rendering. Otherwise trapped water pushes the render off.
How long does a rendering job take?
A typical three-bedroom semi is usually one to two weeks on site including scaffold, preparation, application and finishing. Weather, wall condition and the system chosen all move that.
Do I need planning permission to render my house?
Usually not on a standard house, but you will if the property is listed, in a conservation area, or if rendering would significantly change its appearance. We flag it at survey.
