Trusted render specialists serving Inverleith.
Render is one of those things you don't notice until something goes wrong. In Inverleith we see the full range — from cosmetic hairlines that just need a topcoat refresh, to whole elevations that have lifted away from the wall behind.
In Inverleith 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.
Every job in Inverleith starts the same way — a free survey where we work out why the render has failed, not just where. Patching a blown panel without fixing the cause behind it is the single most common mistake we see on previous repair work.

Render repair questions from Inverleith homeowners
+Will damp inside go away once the render is fixed?
If the damp is being driven by failed render outside — and in Inverleith 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.
+How long does a render repair take?
Small patch repairs in Inverleith 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.
+Can you colour-match my existing render?
Yes — that's the bulk of what we do in Inverleith. Modern silicone and acrylic topcoats can be tinted to almost any shade, and on traditional sand-and-cement we match by mix, sand source and finish technique. On most repairs the patch is invisible from the street within a week.
+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 Inverleith keep the site tidy throughout.
+How much does render repair cost in Inverleith?
Cost depends on the failure type and how much render is affected. A small blown patch on a Inverleith semi might be a few hundred pounds; a full elevation re-render with a silicone topcoat is significantly more. We give you a fixed written price after surveying — no estimates over the phone.
