Options to consider in Hall Green
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.
Render repairs
Cutting out hollow, cracked or blown render, treating any cause such as a leaking gutter or failed bead, and patching to match. Exact colour and texture matches are hard on painted or weathered render, so a repaired wall may need repainting or a full re-coat to look even. We'll be honest about whether a patch will blend.

Questions about rendering in Hall Green
How much does it cost to render a house?
In the West Midlands, rendering typically costs around £40–£65 per m² for painted sand and cement and £65–£100 per m² for silicone or through-coloured render, plus scaffolding. For a three-bed semi with roughly 90–120 m² of wall, that usually means around £6,000–£12,000 for the render, with scaffolding on top. Removing old render or adding insulation increases the cost.
Do you cover Hall Green?
Yes. Hall Green (B28) is about 9 miles from our West Bromwich base and inside the area we cover. Call 0800 088 6248 or send the form on this page to book a free survey.
Can you render over my old render or pebbledash?
Sometimes. If the existing render is firmly bonded, some systems can go over it after cleaning and a key coat. Hollow, cracked or loose render must come off first, because new render won't hold a failing background. We tap-test the whole wall at survey and tell you which areas can stay.
Will I need permission from the council in Hall Green?
You won't usually need planning permission, but the work must meet Building Regulations. Building control in Hall Green is provided by Birmingham City Council or a registered building control approver, and some work is self-certified by registered installers.
