What we look for in Bridgend
We cover Bridgend and nearby Maesteg, Port Talbot and Rhondda. Bridgend is about 12 miles from Rhondda. South Wales has long runs of solid-wall valley terraces, Victorian and Edwardian town housing and post-war council estates.
Parts of Mid Glamorgan 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 Bridgend, we look for cement patching that may be trapping moisture before suggesting lime.

Permissions in Wales
We check Bridgend addresses for conservation areas and listing before quoting, because Welsh permitted development rules don't cover every external change.
Welsh Building Regulations expect walls to be upgraded when a substantial area is renewed, and building control signs the work off.
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 Bridgend: questions
Can lime render be applied in winter?
Only with protection and in frost-free conditions. Spring to early autumn is the usual season.
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.
Is lime render more expensive?
Usually, because it's applied in coats by hand and needs more curing time.
