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.
