Melksham, Wiltshire
Textured Render in Melksham
Textured render finishes from fine grain to heavy relief, matched to the property's character.
Textured Render in Melksham is work we take on regularly, and the Wiltshire housing stock is a big part of why.
Across Wiltshire, Bath and chalk stone cottages, Georgian townhouses and modern estates dominates, and lime render on chalk, clunch and Bath stone in conservation areas is what we are called out to most often.
Local conditions bring a moderate inland climate with exposed downland, and that has a direct bearing on which systems are worth specifying. Chalk and clunch are extremely soft and porous, and rendering them in cement causes the stone itself to break down behind the render.
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 Melksham
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.
