Scotland's building standards cover changes to external wall construction; we check whether your job in Forfar needs a warrant.
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.
