Speedwell is one of the more affordable east Bristol suburbs, sitting between Fishponds and the M32. The housing stock is dominated by 1930s semis on the older streets and post-war estate homes on the streets built in the 1950s-70s. Many of the older renders here are now failing and the homes benefit hugely from a through-colour monocouche or silicone re-render — instant kerb-appeal uplift without the maintenance burden of paint. We render more Speedwell properties per year than you'd expect, given the size of the suburb.
