House Rendering in
Longwell Green

Longwell Green's 1970s-80s homes render cleanly once the pebble or tyrolean is off. The brickwork underneath is usually sound 1970s-80s block — strip, repair any frost-damaged areas, then a through-colour silicone or monocouche finish.

Most Bristol houses built before 2000 were finished in some form of render — pebbledash, tyrolean, sand-and-cement, or roughcast. After 20-40 years, that render is reaching the end of its useful life, and the symptoms are familiar: blown patches, cracking along stress points, paint that won't stay on, and damp getting into the wall. A full house render with a modern system — monocouche, silicone, or acrylic — fixes all of these in one go and adds 25+ years of maintenance-free life. We work on every kind of Bristol property, from 1930s semis in Hanham to Victorian terraces in St George and modern detached homes in Emerson's Green. Every project starts with a free site visit and ends with a 10-year warranty.

Longwell Green is a well-established 1970s-80s suburb east of Bristol, with the A4174 ring road running along its northern edge. The housing is dominated by detached and semi-detached homes from that era — typically 3-4 bed, 1,000-1,500 sq ft — most of which were originally finished in pebbledash or tyrolean render that's now well past its expected life. We render a lot of whole streets here — homeowners often coordinate with neighbours to get consistent finishes across multiple properties. The newer builds on the edges (post-2000) are also increasingly needing re-rendering.
