The work we offer
Roughcasting, Explained
An older Pollokshields property needs roughcast materials suited to its masonry, not just a fresh matching colour. Tell us about any listed-building or conservation requirements before a finish is selected.
- Roughcast sounds hollow or has started to detach
- Cracks run through the textured finish
- Patches are crumbling around windows or at low level
- Previous repairs differ in texture or have failed again
- Rain staining suggests a gutter, downpipe or wall join needs to be checked
Your property in Pollokshields, Glasgow
Keep the wall's stone details clear
Stone borders, window surrounds and earlier patches can show how the roughcast meets the original wall. Photograph those edges with the damaged finish. We assess what is underneath and whether a repair can connect to sound material, rather than assume every older wall suits the same modern coating or render system.
Where protection or permission applies, the proposed material and appearance change must be checked before work starts. A local patch may remain visible beside weathered finish; renewing a larger section is discussed only where condition and a sensible stopping point support it. The quote explains preparation, protection of stone details and the finish being applied, so a neat result does not depend on covering features that should remain visible.
Show stone edges and earlier repairs
Send the Pollokshields postcode, known building status and wider wall photographs. Include window surrounds, patchwork and existing paint so suitable preparation and access can be discussed before pricing the finish.

What Your Roughcasting Quote Covers
Roughcast is a textured render finish applied to an outside wall. Loose material and damaged areas beneath need preparing before a new finish is applied. A thinner wall coating should not be used to hide loose or hollow roughcast.
- Inspecting the existing roughcast and likely moisture sources
- Removing loose material within the agreed work area
- Preparing and repairing the wall beneath the finish where needed
- Applying the agreed base and textured finish
- Protecting openings, roofline, drainage and neighbouring surfaces
Height, access, materials and the amount of damage affect the price. If more damage is found underneath, any extra work and cost will be discussed before it is agreed.

Roughcasting Questions in Pollokshields, Glasgow
Can old roughcast simply receive a modern coat?+
Its condition and the wall material must be assessed first. A new system should not hide loose finish or trap moisture in unsuitable construction.
Will a patch match the older texture perfectly?+
Age, colour and stone size can leave a difference. We discuss the expected appearance and a suitable finish rather than promise an invisible patch.
Does every Pollokshields house need permission?+
No such assumption is made. Tell us the particular property's known status so any relevant requirements can be checked.
