Ledbury, Herefordshire
Render Painting & Coating in Ledbury
Breathable masonry coatings and full-system paint applications over existing render.
We carry out render painting & coating across Ledbury and the surrounding Herefordshire area throughout the year.
Across Herefordshire, timber-framed halls, sandstone cottages and rural farm buildings dominates, and lime render on timber-frame and sandstone, and cement removal from historic fabric is what we are called out to most often.
With moderate rainfall with rural exposure, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. The county has one of the highest concentrations of timber-framed buildings in england, where breathable lime is the only appropriate specification.
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 Ledbury
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.
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.
