Smooth Render Finish in Kirriemuir
Flat, contemporary smooth render — the most demanding finish and the most striking when done right.
Smooth Render Finish in Kirriemuir is work we take on regularly, and the Angus housing stock is a big part of why.
Across Angus, sandstone terraces, fishing-town housing and rural cottages dominates, and harling and render repair on exposed sandstone is what we are called out to most often.
With cold easterly exposure with hard frosts, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. Local sandstone weathers readily once its face is broken, which is why harling was traditionally applied as a sacrificial protective coat.
When smooth render finish is the right call. Choose smooth for contemporary architecture and sharp modern detailing — provided the substrate is sound enough to justify it.

FAQs
Smooth Render Finish in Kirriemuir
Is smooth render more expensive?
Yes, typically 15-25% more than a comparable textured finish, because levelling the basecoat and working the topcoat consistently takes considerably more labour.
Can I have smooth render on an old house?
Often yes, but the substrate has to be levelled properly first, which adds cost. On a very irregular wall a fine texture is usually the better result.
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.
