Tarbert, Argyll and Bute
Pebbledash & Roughcast in Tarbert
New pebbledash and roughcast render — matching existing dash or specifying a fresh application.
Tarbert property owners come to us for pebbledash & roughcast for one of two reasons: something has failed, or the house looks tired.
Argyll and Bute is characterised by stone cottages, Victorian villas and remote coastal properties, with extreme driving rain on remote west-coast properties the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
With very high rainfall with severe Atlantic exposure, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. The west coast combines the highest rainfall in britain with severe wind, and only breathable harling reliably survives it long term.
When pebbledash & roughcast is the right call. Choose dash for exposed, coastal and high-rainfall locations, for matching existing dashed elevations, and where minimum maintenance matters most.

FAQs
Pebbledash & Roughcast in Tarbert
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.
