External rendering, true to the line.

A good render protects the building and sets the whole look of it. W. Parham Plastering renders extensions, whole houses and garden walls in sand-and-cement, monocouche and modern through-coloured systems, worked in lifts and beaded out clean so the edges run true.

Rendering, done properly.

01 / 04

Sand & Cement

Traditional scratchcoat and topcoat render, the dependable workhorse finish, ruled off flat and ready to paint.

02 / 04

Monocouche & Through-Colour

One-coat, through-coloured renders that carry their colour all the way through, so there is no repainting down the line.

03 / 04

Beaded & Detailed

Stop beads, bell-cast and reveals all set out properly, so the render finishes clean at every edge and opening.

04 / 04

Extensions & Whole Houses

New extensions blended to the existing wall, or whole houses re-rendered to refresh the look and weatherproof the building.

Common questions, straight answers.

What is the difference between monocouche and sand-and-cement render?

Sand and cement is a traditional two-coat render that is then painted. Monocouche is a one-coat, through-coloured render that carries its colour all the way through, so it does not need painting and will not flake off like paint can. We fit both and will talk through which suits your house.

Can you render over old or painted render?

Often yes, where the existing render is sound and well-keyed. Where it is blown, hollow or flaking it is better taken off first. We check the wall at the quote and tell you honestly which way is right.

What time of year is best for rendering?

Render needs frost-free, not-too-hot weather to cure properly, so spring through autumn is ideal. We can render in winter around the forecast, protecting the work where needed.
