Local considerations in Basingstoke
We also cover Fleet and Thatcham, close to Basingstoke. Basingstoke is about 28 miles from Southampton. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Hampshire: sheltered town streets fare better than walls on high ground or facing the prevailing weather, and the render, beads and cill details are chosen with that in mind.
Acrylic can suit extensions in Basingstoke, especially where a stronger colour is wanted.

Approvals in England
Planning in Basingstoke follows England's national rules: similar-looking finishes on houses are usually permitted, while flats, commercial premises, conservation areas and streets under an Article 4 direction need an application.
Insulating or re-rendering more than half of a wall's area brings in Part L of the Building Regulations, so building control is notified and the wall is upgraded to about 0.30 W/m²K where practical.
Acrylic or silicone?
Both are thin-coat, through-coloured finishes. Acrylic is more flexible and slightly cheaper; silicone is more water-repellent and vapour-open and generally stays cleaner. On older solid walls that need to breathe, silicone or mineral finishes are usually preferred.

Acrylic render in Basingstoke: questions
Can acrylic render go on a solid stone wall?
It's not our first choice there, because a vapour-open finish is safer on walls that need to breathe.
How long does acrylic render last?
Typically 20–25 years or more with maintenance on a suitable wall.
Does acrylic render attract dirt?
It can hold dirt slightly more than silicone over time. Occasional gentle cleaning keeps it bright.
