Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands
Pebbledash & Roughcast in Sutton Coldfield
New pebbledash and roughcast render — matching existing dash or specifying a fresh application.
We carry out pebbledash & roughcast across Sutton Coldfield and the surrounding West Midlands area throughout the year.
West Midlands is characterised by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, vast interwar semi estates and postwar housing, with pebbledash removal on interwar semis and EWI on solid-wall stock the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
With a moderate urban climate with a heat-island effect, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. The conurbation holds one of the largest concentrations of 1930s pebbledashed semis in the country, which drives most of the domestic work here.
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 Sutton Coldfield
How long does a rendering job take?
A typical three-bedroom semi is usually one to two weeks on site including scaffold, preparation, application and finishing. Weather, wall condition and the system chosen all move that.
Do I need planning permission to render my house?
Usually not on a standard house, but you will if the property is listed, in a conservation area, or if rendering would significantly change its appearance. We flag it at survey.
Will you need scaffolding?
For anything above single storey, yes — it is safer and produces a better finish than working off ladders or towers. Scaffold is included and itemised in the quote.
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.
