What we look for in Belfast
As well as Belfast itself, we quote in Castlereagh, Newtownabbey and Holywood. Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.
Parts of County Antrim 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 Belfast homeowners matching a new extension to an existing rendered house, we compare monocouche and silicone samples first.

Planning and building control in Northern Ireland
Before quoting in Belfast, we check whether the property is listed or in a conservation area, which changes what needs planning permission in Northern Ireland.
Building control applies to insulation and major re-rendering in Northern Ireland, and the work is signed off by the council.
Why does monocouche sometimes look patchy?
Colour variation (often called shading) can appear if it's applied in poor weather, on walls with uneven suction, or in sections on different days. Working an elevation in one go in suitable conditions keeps the colour even.

Monocouche render in Belfast: questions
How long does monocouche last?
Typically 20 years or more on a suitable wall, depending on exposure and detailing.
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.
