What we look for in Clwyd
North Wales has many solid stone and slate-built homes, Victorian seaside terraces and post-war council estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Clwyd: 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.
We plan monocouche in Clwyd for settled weather so each elevation can be finished in one go.

Wales: planning and regulations
Permitted development rules for houses in Wales are similar to England's: a similar-appearance finish on a house is often permitted, while conservation areas, National Parks, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need permission or consent. Your local planning authority has the final word.
The Building Regulations as they apply in Wales treat insulating or re-rendering more than half of a wall's area, or more than a quarter of the building's whole envelope, as renovating a thermal element, with Approved Document L (Wales) setting the target. Building control is involved before work starts.
Can monocouche go over insulation?
No — insulation systems use a mesh-reinforced base coat and a thin-coat finish instead. If you want insulation as well as a new finish, see insulated render.

Monocouche render in Clwyd: questions
Does monocouche need painting?
No — it's through-coloured. Cleaning every few years keeps it looking fresh.
Monocouche or silicone for an extension?
Both work on new blockwork. Silicone over a base coat costs a little more but tends to stay cleaner.
Is monocouche waterproof?
It's water-resistant and sheds rain, while still allowing some vapour through.
Do you cover all of Clwyd?
Yes. We survey and quote monocouche render across Clwyd, including Wrexham, Buckley, Colwyn Bay, Deeside, Flint.
Do I need planning permission in Wales?
Permitted development rules for houses in Wales are similar to England's: a similar-appearance finish on a house is often permitted, while conservation areas, National Parks, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need permission or consent.
