Lime Render in Corsham
Breathable hydraulic and hot-mixed lime render for period, listed and solid-wall properties.
Our lime render work in Corsham starts with a free survey, because guessing at a render specification is how jobs go wrong.
Across Wiltshire, Bath and chalk stone cottages, Georgian townhouses and modern estates dominates, and lime render on chalk, clunch and Bath stone in conservation areas is what we are called out to most often.
The area sees a moderate inland climate with exposed downland, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here. Chalk and clunch are extremely soft and porous, and rendering them in cement causes the stone itself to break down behind the render.
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 Corsham
How much does rendering cost?
It is priced by the square metre and depends on the system, the condition of the walls and access. Our guide-price tool gives an indicative range in about a minute, and the survey turns that into a fixed written quote.
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.
