Specialist render repair across Corby.
Older render systems used across Corby and the wider East Midlands — sand and cement, pebbledash, rough-cast — were never designed for modern weather extremes. When they fail, they tend to fail in the same handful of ways.
In Corby we see a lot of damp staining showing on inside walls, which homeowners assume is a damp problem. Nine times out of ten the real cause is failing render outside — water tracking down a crack, behind a sill or through a blown patch.
Once we've surveyed your property in Corby, you get a written, fixed-price quote — broken down by elevation so you can see exactly what each part of the job costs. No surprises, no day-rate creep.

Render repair questions from Corby homeowners
+Will damp inside go away once the render is fixed?
If the damp is being driven by failed render outside — and in Corby that's the most common cause we see — then yes, once the wall can dry out properly the staining stops spreading and inside surfaces can be redecorated. We'll always identify the cause before quoting.
+Will the work be disruptive?
Render repair is external work — we don't need access inside your home unless we're chasing the cause of internal damp. Scaffold and access goes up at the start, comes down at the end, and our crews working in Corby keep the site tidy throughout.
+How long does a render repair take?
Small patch repairs in Corby are usually a one or two day job. A full elevation is typically a working week, including drying time between coats. We give you a clear schedule with the quote so you know what to expect.
+Do I need to re-render the whole house, or just patch it?
Almost never the whole house. Most Corby jobs are localised — a blown patch under a sill, cracking around a bay, an elevation that's taken the brunt of the weather. We'll only recommend full re-rendering if the existing system has genuinely failed across the board.
+What's the best time of year to repair render?
Spring through early autumn is ideal because render needs above-freezing temperatures to cure. We work year-round in Corby with frost protection where needed, but if you can plan ahead, March to October gives the cleanest finish.
