Sand & Cement Render in Tyrone
Traditional two or three-coat sand and cement render, float or sponge finished, ready to paint.
Our sand & cement render work in Tyrone starts with a free survey, because guessing at a render specification is how jobs go wrong.
Tyrone is characterised by rural stone farmhouses, brick terraces and modern estates, with driving rain and frost damage on exposed upland properties the recurring theme on the properties we survey. With wet with exposed upland conditions in the Sperrins, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests.
Local factor. The sperrin uplands add altitude and frost to already high rainfall, which is a demanding combination for any external finish.
Is sand & cement render right for a Tyrone property?
Choose sand and cement for boundary walls, outbuildings, patch repairs to match existing render, and budget-led projects on stable substrates.
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
Sand & Cement Render in Tyrone — questions
How long does sand and cement render need to cure?
Allow three to seven days between coats and a further 28 days to fully cure before painting. Rushing the paint traps moisture and causes blistering.
Why does sand and cement render crack?
Because it is rigid. Common causes are an over-strong mix, no movement joints, applying in hot or freezing conditions, or substrate movement underneath.
How much does rendering cost?
It is priced by the square metre and depends on the system, the condition of the walls and access. Our guide-price tool gives an indicative range in about a minute, and the survey turns that into a fixed written quote.
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.
