Render Repair in South Glamorgan
Cutting out blown, hollow and failed render and making good to match the existing finish.
We carry out render repair across South Glamorgan and the surrounding South Glamorgan area throughout the year.
The prevailing picture in South Glamorgan is Victorian and Edwardian terraces, Cardiff suburban housing and coastal properties. That means solid-wall terrace damp and coastal weathering at Barry and Penarth comes up more here than almost anywhere else. With wet with coastal exposure along the Severn estuary, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests.
Local factor. Cardiff's victorian terraces are largely solid-wall, and external insulation with a breathable render is the upgrade that suits them best.
Is render repair right for a South 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 South Glamorgan — questions
Do you offer a guarantee?
Yes. Every job carries our workmanship guarantee, and where a full manufacturer-specified system is installed you also get the system warranty on top.
What time of year is best for rendering?
Spring through autumn is ideal. Render should not be applied in frost or in very hot direct sun, so winter work needs protection and settled conditions.
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, with teams across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If we are not the right firm for your location we will tell you rather than waste your time.
How do I know if my render has blown?
Tap it with your knuckle or a small hammer. Solid render sounds dull and dense; blown render sounds hollow and drummy. Bulging and hairline map-cracking are other signs.
