Bordon: walls, weather and approvals
As well as Bordon itself, we quote in Farnham, Aldershot and Fleet. Bordon 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.
For stone and early brick properties in Bordon, lime render is often the right answer.

England: planning and regulations
Before quoting in Bordon, we check whether the property is in a conservation area, under an Article 4 direction or listed, because that decides whether changing the outside needs planning permission.
Building control applies once more than half of a wall is insulated or re-rendered, or more than a quarter of the whole building envelope, and your written quote says how that's handled.
Can lime render be insulated?
Yes, using wood fibre boards or insulating lime plasters. These keep the wall breathable while reducing heat loss.

Lime render in Bordon: questions
Does lime render need painting?
Traditionally it's limewashed, which is breathable. Modern masonry paints can block vapour, so we'd avoid them.
Is lime render more expensive?
Usually, because it's applied in coats by hand and needs more curing time.
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.
Do you cover Bordon?
Yes — we survey and quote lime render in Bordon (GU35) and nearby Farnham, Aldershot and Fleet, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
