Ealing, Greater London
Lime Render in Ealing
Breathable hydraulic and hot-mixed lime render for period, listed and solid-wall properties.
Lime Render in Ealing is work we take on regularly, and the Greater London housing stock is a big part of why.
Most of what we see around Ealing reflects the wider Greater London pattern — Victorian and Edwardian terraces, interwar suburban semis and high-density modern development, and solid-wall Victorian terraces, party-wall constraints and heavy atmospheric soiling.
Local conditions bring a drier urban climate with a pronounced heat-island effect, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. Atmospheric pollution soils render faster in london than anywhere else in the uk, which is why self-cleaning silicone finishes are specified so heavily here.
When lime render is the right call. Choose lime for any pre-1919, listed, stone, cob or solid-wall property — and wherever a conservation officer is involved.

FAQs
Lime Render in Ealing
Is lime render suitable for listed buildings?
Yes, and it is usually required. We work to conservation specifications and can supply mix details and samples for listed building consent.
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.
Will you need scaffolding?
For anything above single storey, yes — it is safer and produces a better finish than working off ladders or towers. Scaffold is included and itemised in the quote.
How long before I can paint new render?
Through-coloured systems need no painting at all. Sand and cement should cure for around 28 days before masonry paint goes anywhere near it.
