Aberdare, Mid Glamorgan
Smooth Render Finish in Aberdare
Flat, contemporary smooth render — the most demanding finish and the most striking when done right.
Getting smooth render finish right in Aberdare depends far more on the substrate and the exposure than on the product name.
Across Mid Glamorgan, valley terraces, former colliery housing and modern estates dominates, and pebbledash and cement render failure on valley terraces is what we are called out to most often.
Local conditions bring high rainfall in sheltered but damp valley locations, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. Much of the terraced stock was rendered in cement during the 1960s and 70s and is now failing en masse across the valleys.
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 Aberdare
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.
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.
