Rendering FAQs
Do I need planning permission to render my home?
In most cases no, but if your property is listed or in a conservation area, permission may be required. We can advise based on your location.
What type of render is best for my property?
We offer both traditional and modern systems. We'll recommend a solution based on your building type, insulation needs, and finish preferences.
Can you colour match or provide coloured render?
Yes — we offer pre-coloured renders and can also apply paintable finishes if a custom colour is needed.
How long does rendering take?
It depends on the area and system used. Most single elevations are completed in a few days, with whole-house jobs taking around 1–2 weeks.
