"Chris has been fantastic to deal with from start to finish. He had great attention to detail when removing our old rendering and applying a new silicone render. Throughout the job the site was kept tidy and he always kept us informed. We're so pleased with the work and would definitely use him again."

"Chris was amazing from the fast reply to the quick and good value quote, to fitting in my plastering jobs straight away as I was very short of time. His work is first class and he cleaned up everything when he had finished. I would recommend him without hesitation."

Common Questions

Everything you
need to know

See all FAQs →
01 Silicone Render
What is silicone render and why is it better than traditional cement render?

Silicone render is a premium polymer-modified thin-coat system containing silicone resin — the same material used in waterproof sealants. Unlike traditional sand and cement, silicone is flexible (won't crack as buildings move), hydrophobic (rain sheets off), and breathable (moisture vapour escapes). The colour runs throughout the full thickness — nothing to peel, chip, or repaint. In Sheffield's variable climate, that combination makes it the gold-standard external finish.

+
02 Pricing
How much does silicone render cost for a typical Sheffield house?

For a typical 100m² detached house in Sheffield, silicone render costs £7,500–£12,000 including scaffold, preparation, and a full professional system. Semi-detached properties range from £4,500–£7,000. We charge £75–£100+ per square metre and provide a fully itemised quote after a free site survey. No deposit — pay only when the work is complete.

+
03 Rendering
What is the difference between silicone render and monocouche?

Monocouche is a single-coat, through-coloured cement-based render scraped back to create a stone-like textured finish, typically costing £70–£90/m². Silicone render is more flexible, offers superior self-cleaning properties, more colour options, and greater weather resistance at £75–£100+/m². Both carry 20–25 year manufacturer warranties. We'll advise which is best for your property at the free survey.

+
04 EWI
What is EWI and how much can it save on energy bills?

External Wall Insulation (EWI) is a multi-layer system — insulation board fixed to the outside of your walls, then a reinforced render system applied on top. It eliminates thermal bridges, reduces heat loss by 35–40%, and typically improves EPC ratings by two or more bands. Sheffield homeowners typically save £300–£600/year on heating bills. A typical semi-detached property costs £9,000–£14,000. Government grants (ECO4, GBIS) may be available.

+
05 No Deposit
Do you require a deposit?

No. We operate a strict no-deposit policy on every project. You pay nothing until the work is 100% complete, the site is clean, and you've personally inspected and approved the quality of the finish.

+
06 Plastering
What is the difference between skimming and a full re-plaster?

Skimming is a 2–3mm finish coat applied over existing sound plasterboard — the fastest, most affordable option for a smooth paint-ready surface. A full re-plaster strips walls to bare masonry, applies a bond prime, float coat, and skim — the most thorough option for properties with failing plaster or after structural work.

+
07 Plastering
How long does fresh plaster take to dry before painting?

A freshly skimmed wall typically takes 3–7 days to fully dry in good conditions. You can tell it's ready when the plaster transitions from dark pink to a uniform pale buff. Always apply a mist coat first (emulsion diluted 1:5 with water) to seal the surface before painting.

+
08 Coverage
What areas of Sheffield do you cover?

We cover all Sheffield postcodes S1 through S36, including Dore, Fulwood, Crosspool, Grenoside, Hillsborough, Chapeltown, Stannington, Ecclesall, Sharrow, Woodseats, and Beighton. We also take projects in adjacent South Yorkshire areas including Rotherham, Barnsley, and Doncaster.

+
09 Rendering
Can you render a house in winter?

Yes — provided the temperature is above 5°C at application and for 24 hours afterwards, and the surface is dry. We monitor Sheffield weather closely and use manufacturer-approved additives in cooler months. We'll never apply render in frost, heavy rain, or if either is forecast within the cure window.

+
10 Warranty
How long does silicone render last?

A professionally installed silicone render system carries a 25-year manufacturer product warranty and our own 5-year workmanship guarantee. In practice, silicone render applied to a properly prepared substrate will exceed 25 years. The through-colour is UV-stable, meaning it won't chalk or fade.
