Pebbledash & Roughcast in Burton upon Trent
New pebbledash and roughcast render — matching existing dash or specifying a fresh application.
Burton upon Trent property owners come to us for pebbledash & roughcast for one of two reasons: something has failed, or the house looks tired.
Staffordshire is characterised by Victorian terraces, Potteries housing and extensive postwar estates, with render repair on terraced housing and frost damage in the Staffordshire Moorlands the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
The area sees moderate rainfall with exposed moorland to the north, which is the single biggest factor in how long any render lasts here. The moorlands around leek sit high and cold, and specifications suited to stoke can fail on the same job a few miles north.
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 Burton upon Trent
How long before I can paint new render?
Through-coloured systems need no painting at all. Sand and cement should cure for around 28 days before masonry paint goes anywhere near it.
Do you take a deposit?
For most domestic jobs we take a deposit to cover materials and scaffold, with the balance on completion. Terms are set out clearly in the written quote.
Can you match my existing render?
Usually, yes. We colour and texture match as closely as we can, though weathered render never matches a fresh batch exactly — we will be honest about how visible a patch will be.
Is pebbledash still used?
Yes, widely — especially in Scotland, Ireland and exposed coastal areas where its weather resistance is a genuine advantage.
Does pebbledash need painting?
No. The aggregate provides the colour and finish. It can be painted, but that then commits you to a repainting cycle it did not previously need.
