Pebbledash & Roughcast in Kingussie
New pebbledash and roughcast render — matching existing dash or specifying a fresh application.
Our pebbledash & roughcast work in Kingussie starts with a free survey, because guessing at a render specification is how jobs go wrong.
Across Inverness-shire, stone cottages, croft houses and highland rural properties dominates, and frost damage and driving rain on remote highland properties is what we are called out to most often.
The area sees severe highland conditions with heavy rain and hard frost, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here. Altitude, remoteness and severe frost cycling combine here to make breathable lime harling the only durable specification on traditional stock.
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 Kingussie
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.
