Render Repair in Dudley
Cutting out blown, hollow and failed render and making good to match the existing finish.
Our render repair work in Dudley starts with a free survey, because guessing at a render specification is how jobs go wrong.
Across West Midlands, Victorian and Edwardian terraces, vast interwar semi estates and postwar housing dominates, and pebbledash removal on interwar semis and EWI on solid-wall stock is what we are called out to most often.
Local conditions bring a moderate urban climate with a heat-island effect, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. The conurbation holds one of the largest concentrations of 1930s pebbledashed semis in the country, which drives most of the domestic work here.
When render repair is the right call. Choose repair over a full re-render when failure is localised, the bulk of the elevation is sound, and the cause can be fixed.

FAQs
Render Repair in Dudley
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.
Will the repair match my existing render?
We colour and texture match as closely as possible, but weathered render never matches fresh render exactly. On a visible front elevation, rendering the full wall gives a cleaner result.
