Silicone Render in Plymouth
Breathable, self-cleaning silicone thin-coat render in a through-colour finish that never needs painting.
We carry out silicone render across Plymouth and the surrounding Devon area throughout the year.
Devon is characterised by cob and thatch, stone farmhouses and extensive coastal housing, with cement render on cob causing structural decay the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
Plymouth sits in a part of the UK that gets high rainfall and exposed coastal conditions — worth factoring into any render decision. Cob is unforgiving — it must be finished in lime, and cement rendering over cob is one of the most damaging things that can be done to a devon property.
When silicone render is the right call. Choose silicone where you want a low-maintenance, breathable finish on a solid-wall or insulated property and you don't want to repaint every five to seven years.

FAQs
Silicone Render in Plymouth
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.
