Welshpool, Powys
Pebbledash & Roughcast in Welshpool
New pebbledash and roughcast render — matching existing dash or specifying a fresh application.
Pebbledash & Roughcast in Welshpool is work we take on regularly, and the Powys housing stock is a big part of why.
Most of what we see around Welshpool reflects the wider Powys pattern — stone farmhouses, timber framing and rural cottages, and lime render on rural stone and timber-frame properties.
With high rainfall with exposed upland conditions, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. Powys is overwhelmingly rural, solid-wall and upland, which makes breathable lime the standard specification rather than a heritage exception.
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 Welshpool
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.
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.
