Choices to weigh up in Pelsall

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.

Insulated render (EWI)

External wall insulation boards fixed to the wall, with mesh, base coat and a silicone or acrylic top coat. It makes solid-walled homes warmer and is the usual way to meet building regulations when re-rendering more than half of an uninsulated wall. It thickens the wall, so window cills, pipes and the roof overhang need detailing.

Questions about rendering in Pelsall

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.

Do you cover Pelsall?

Yes. Pelsall (WS3) is about 8 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.

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.

Will I need permission from the council in Pelsall?

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