What we look for in Stranraer
We cover Stranraer and the wider Dumfries and Galloway; island and remote addresses are surveyed by arrangement. South West Scotland has stone and harled houses, coastal towns and post-war council housing.
Parts of Dumfries and Galloway fall in the higher wind-driven rain exposure bands, especially coastal and upland sites, so render specification, movement joints and detailing at cills, verges and the base of the wall matter more than usual.
For houses in Stranraer with shallow eaves, the insulated render thickness is planned with the roofline in mind.

Can I choose two colours?
Yes. Many owners pick a main colour with a contrasting plinth, entrance surround or bay. Feature bands and recessed details can be formed in the insulation before rendering.
