Is it cheaper to plaster or render?

Internal plastering usually costs less per square metre than external rendering. Rendering involves more materials and preparation work which pushes the price higher. The scope of the job makes a big difference too.

Do plasterers do render?

Yes — an experienced plasterer works on both internal and external surfaces. Our team covers everything from interior skimming to full K Rend silicone rendering systems on outside walls.

Does rendering reduce house value?

No — quality rendering improves kerb appeal and protects the structure, both of which buyers respond positively to. It is failing or poorly applied render that causes problems at valuation.

How much does rendering usually cost?

It depends on property size, the system used, and the condition of the existing surface. We provide a free written quote after every site visit with no hidden costs involved.

Does render make a house damp?

It can if it is non-breathable or badly applied. Silicone systems like K Rend are designed to let moisture vapour escape while keeping rainwater out. Done correctly render prevents damp rather than causing it.

Why are plaster walls not used anymore?

Boarding and skimming over plasterboard is quicker and more cost effective for most modern builds. Lime plaster is still used on older and heritage properties where breathability really matters.

About Surrey Plastering & Rendering Company

WHO WE ARE

Surrey's Trusted Plastering & Rendering Experts

Welcome to Surrey Plastering & Rendering Company — a small, experienced local team delivering professional plastering and rendering services across Cobham and the wider Surrey area.

Nobody really thinks about their walls until something forces the issue. A crack appears, render starts lifting, or the plaster inside starts quietly giving up. That’s when most people start looking for someone they can actually trust to fix it properly.

We’ve been doing this work for years, and most of our jobs come through word of mouth. A job in Oxshott or Esher, a neighbour notices the result, and we get a call from Weybridge or Leatherhead shortly after. That doesn’t happen unless the quality is genuinely there.

We work with both residential and commercial clients across Surrey, handling everything from internal plastering and skim coats to external rendering and K Rend silicone finishes. Every project gets the same level of care — no shortcuts, no rough phone estimates, just honest work that lasts.

"Simon, Jamie and Craig re-plastered sections of our house this summer. They are knowledgeable, professional, courteous and did the work to a high standard. For such a messy job, they took pains to be tidy. Most critically for me, they kept their words. I would turn to them for future work around the house and would recommend."
