Rendering in Bedworth

What should you know before starting in Bedworth?

Work like this in Bedworth rarely needs planning permission, but parts of the job must meet Building Regulations — certified electrical work, ventilation or energy-efficiency standards, for example. Your quote shows how each part is signed off. If planning does come into it, say for a listed building, Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council is the authority.

Options to consider in Bedworth

Sand and cement render

The traditional two-coat render of sand, cement and lime or plasticiser, finished smooth or textured and then painted with masonry paint. It's the most affordable system and easy to patch. It needs repainting every several years, and on older solid walls a breathable, lime-based mix is often better than a hard cement render.

Silicone render

A thin-coat render applied over a base coat and mesh, with silicone added so rain beads off and dirt washes away. Silicone render is through-coloured, so it needs no painting, flexes slightly with the wall and lets moisture escape. It costs more than sand and cement but needs far less upkeep.

How much should you budget in Bedworth?

Prices in Bedworth match the rest of our area: £40–£160 per m². Silicone render with base coat and mesh over sound brickwork, including beads: usually £70–£100 per m².

Before you book in Bedworth

Will my house be disrupted while it's rendered?

Most of the work is outside, but there's scaffolding around the house, noise when old render is removed, and dust. Windows are masked during spraying and coating, which can make rooms darker for a few days. Downpipes and outside lights are removed temporarily and refitted at the end.

What guarantee comes with new render?

The render system carries the manufacturer's guarantee, and the terms for your system are set out in your quote. Some manufacturers' guarantees depend on their full system and application method being used, which we follow. Keep the paperwork with any building control certificate for the work.

Does Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council need to approve my render?

You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Bedworth is provided by Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
