Lime Render in Warwickshire
Breathable hydraulic and hot-mixed lime render for period, listed and solid-wall properties.
We carry out lime render across Warwickshire and the surrounding Warwickshire area throughout the year.
Across Warwickshire, timber framing, Victorian brick and extensive modern estate development dominates, and conservation lime work around Stratford and render refresh on modern estates is what we are called out to most often. With a moderate inland climate, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests.
Local factor. Stratford-upon-avon and warwick carry dense listed-building coverage where cement render is effectively ruled out.
Is lime render right for a Warwickshire property?
Choose lime for any pre-1919, listed, stone, cob or solid-wall property — and wherever a conservation officer is involved.
That decision gets made at the survey, not on the phone. We will tell you plainly if a different system would serve the building better — including when a cheaper one would.

FAQs
Lime Render in Warwickshire — questions
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.
Do you take a deposit?
For most domestic jobs we take a deposit to cover materials and scaffold, with the balance on completion. Terms are set out clearly in the written quote.
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.
How long does lime render take to cure?
Far longer than cement. Allow seven to fourteen days between coats and several months for full carbonation. It must be protected from frost and direct sun throughout.
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.
