Render Repair in Mid Glamorgan
Cutting out blown, hollow and failed render and making good to match the existing finish.
Our render repair work in Mid Glamorgan starts with a free survey, because guessing at a render specification is how jobs go wrong.
The prevailing picture in Mid Glamorgan is valley terraces, former colliery housing and modern estates. That means pebbledash and cement render failure on valley terraces comes up more here than almost anywhere else. With high rainfall in sheltered but damp valley locations, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests.
Local factor. Much of the terraced stock was rendered in cement during the 1960s and 70s and is now failing en masse across the valleys.
Is render repair right for a Mid Glamorgan property?
Choose repair over a full re-render when failure is localised, the bulk of the elevation is sound, and the cause can be fixed.
That decision gets made at the survey, not on the phone. We will tell you plainly if a different system would serve the building better — including when a cheaper one would.

FAQs
Render Repair in Mid Glamorgan — questions
Why did my render fail?
Most commonly water getting in from above — failed gutters, cracked sills, missing bell-cast beads — or an over-strong cement mix on a substrate that moves. We identify the cause as part of the survey.
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.
