Render Painting & Coating in Aberystwyth
Breathable masonry coatings and full-system paint applications over existing render.
Render Painting & Coating in Aberystwyth is work we take on regularly, and the Dyfed housing stock is a big part of why.
Most of what we see around Aberystwyth reflects the wider Dyfed pattern — stone farmhouses, lime-washed cottages and exposed coastal housing, and driving rain penetration on solid stone walls.
Local conditions bring very high rainfall with severe Atlantic exposure, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. West wales takes the full force of atlantic weather, and lime-washed roughcast remains the traditional and technically correct answer to it.
When render painting & coating is the right call. Choose painting when the render is structurally sound and you want a colour change or refresh without the cost of a full re-render.

FAQs
Render Painting & Coating in Aberystwyth
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.
What paint should be used on render?
A breathable coating — silicone-based or mineral silicate. Avoid heavy plastic-based masonry paints, especially on solid walls, as they trap moisture.
Why is my masonry paint peeling?
Almost always trapped moisture behind a non-breathable coating, or paint applied over a chalky, unstabilised surface without a primer.
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.
