Before we quote in Bangor (Gwynedd)
As well as Bangor (Gwynedd) itself, we quote in Llangefni, Caernarfon and Llandudno. North Wales has many solid stone and slate-built homes, Victorian seaside terraces and post-war council estates.
Parts of Gwynedd 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 period homes in Bangor (Gwynedd), we look for cement patching that may be trapping moisture before suggesting lime.

Wales: planning and regulations
Householder rules in Wales are similar to England's: in Bangor (Gwynedd), a similar-looking finish on a house is often permitted, but conservation areas, flats and listed buildings need permission or consent.
Building control in Wales applies to most insulation and re-rendering jobs of this size; the quote states who submits the notice.
How is lime render applied?
Old cement render is removed where it's causing problems, the wall is dampened, and lime is applied in successive coats — usually a scratch coat, a float coat and a finish coat — with curing time between. Freshly applied lime must be protected from frost, rain and fast drying.

Lime render in Bangor (Gwynedd): questions
Can lime render be applied in winter?
Only with protection and in frost-free conditions. Spring to early autumn is the usual season.
Does lime render need painting?
Traditionally it's limewashed, which is breathable. Modern masonry paints can block vapour, so we'd avoid them.
Should I remove cement render from my stone house?
If it's cracked, hollow or trapping damp, often yes. If it's sound and the wall is dry, it may be left. The survey looks at both.
