The work we offer
Roughcasting, Explained
Roughcasting a Shawlands shared wall needs more than agreement on its colour. We check the damaged finish, nearby water sources and which wall sections the owners want repaired or renewed.
- 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 Shawlands, Glasgow
Agree the wall section before choosing the finish
If you live in a flat, photograph the full wall as well as the damaged area outside your room. Loose roughcast or staining can cross the boundary between flats, and rainwater from a shared gutter may be the cause. We inspect the surrounding finish so a small patch is not priced as though sound edges and dry masonry have already been confirmed.
The factor, the building manager, or owners' contact should coordinate shared work and access. The quote identifies where the repair stops, preparation of the wall underneath and the expected texture difference from weathered roughcast. Renewing one wall can give a more consistent appearance where damage is widespread, but it is a separate decision from repairing one reported patch.
Send the shared wall in one wider view
Include the Shawlands postcode, wall height and who manages the building. Show gutters or pipes above the damage and explain which owners have agreed to discuss work, with earlier repairs if known.
- Full wall and damaged patch
- Shared drainage above it
- Owners' coordinating contact

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.

Before you book
Roughcasting Questions in Shawlands, Glasgow
Can one flat request a roughcast quote?+
Yes. Describe the shared wall and responsible contact. Relevant owners must agree work and access before repairs proceed.
Does the patch need to follow my flat's boundary?+
Not necessarily. The condition and a suitable stopping point guide the repair; ownership arrangements need a separate clear agreement.
Will new roughcast hide an old gutter stain?+
It should not hide an ongoing leak. The water source needs attention before the finish is renewed where it is causing the damage.
