Options to consider in Redditch

Through-coloured render (K Rend type)

Single-coat or two-coat renders coloured through their whole depth, sprayed or trowelled and then scraped to a textured finish. Brands such as K Rend are widely used on new and existing homes. They don't need painting and hide small marks well, though they're best on walls with consistent backgrounds.

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.

Guide prices for Redditch

Expect to budget between £40 and £160 per m² in Redditch. Silicone render with base coat and mesh over sound brickwork, including beads: typically £70–£100 per m².

Before you book in Redditch

How long does rendering take?

A typical semi takes one to three weeks, depending on how much old render comes off, the system and the weather. Each coat needs time to cure, and render can't be applied in frost, heavy rain or very hot sun. We plan the programme around the forecast and tell you about any delays.

Yes. Redditch (B97) is about 15 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.

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.

Who approves rendering in Redditch?

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