Pebbledash & Roughcast in Clifton
New pebbledash and roughcast render — matching existing dash or specifying a fresh application.
Clifton property owners come to us for pebbledash & roughcast for one of two reasons: something has failed, or the house looks tired.
The prevailing picture in Bristol is dense Victorian terraces, Georgian stone in the older centre and postwar suburban estates. That means cement render trapping damp in solid-wall Victorian terraces comes up more here than almost anywhere else.
Local conditions bring a mild, wet south-western climate, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. Much of the older stock is solid-wall bath and pennant stone, where lime rather than cement is the correct specification.
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 Clifton
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.
What is the difference between pebbledash and roughcast?
Pebbledash (dry dash) throws dry chippings onto a wet coat, so the stones sit proud. Roughcast (wet dash) mixes aggregate into the render first, giving a more integrated, slightly softer texture.
Can you match my existing pebbledash?
Usually. We source aggregate to match the original size and colour. An exact match on weathered dash is difficult, but a close match on a repair reads far better than smooth infill.
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.
