Porthcawl, Mid Glamorgan
Textured Render in Porthcawl
Textured render finishes from fine grain to heavy relief, matched to the property's character.
Porthcawl property owners come to us for textured render for one of two reasons: something has failed, or the house looks tired.
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.
With high rainfall in sheltered but damp valley locations, specification matters more in this part of the country than a national price list suggests. Much of the terraced stock was rendered in cement during the 1960s and 70s and is now failing en masse across the valleys.
When textured render is the right call. Choose a textured finish where you want visual depth, or where the substrate is irregular enough that a smooth finish would show every undulation.

FAQs
Textured Render in Porthcawl
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.
What grain size should I choose?
1.5mm for a near-smooth contemporary look, 2mm as the versatile all-rounder, 3mm where you want pronounced texture or need to disguise an uneven substrate.
