Expert External Rendering & Roughcasting
Across Lanark, Scotland
Trusted slaters & plasterers with over 40 years' experience providing durable wall finishes.

Selecting the right finish for your exterior walls depends on your property's style and your personal preference. We offer a variety of options to suit every home in Lanark:Traditional Roughcasting (Harling): A classic Scottish finish involving a mix of cement, sand, and aggregate. It is incredibly tough and ideal for our wet climate.Dry and Wet Dash: We provide different textures, from the sharp, clean look of dry dash pebbles to the smoother, more uniform appearance of wet dash rendering.Through-Coloured Render: A modern solution where the pigment is mixed throughout the material. These systems are low-maintenance, resistant to cracking, and never require painting.We are happy to visit your property to discuss which system best suits your budget and the structural needs of your building.

It is important to catch external wall issues early before moisture reaches the underlying structure. You should look out for visible cracks in the render, sections that appear 'blown' or hollow when tapped, and areas where the roughcasting has started to crumble or fall away. If you notice damp patches on your internal walls, it often indicates that your external protection has failed.Our team provides expert roughcast repairs across South Lanarkshire. We don't just patch the surface; we investigate the cause of the damage and provide a seamless repair that matches your existing finish as closely as possible, preventing further deterioration and saving you money on future structural repairs.

Even the highest quality rendering requires occasional maintenance to stay in top condition. Moss growth, algae, and general dirt can trap moisture against the surface, while minor hairline cracks can expand during the winter freeze-thaw cycle.
