Local considerations in Battersea
Surveys in Battersea also cover the surrounding SW11 district and towns such as Chelsea and Fulham. London's housing includes a large stock of Victorian and Edwardian solid-wall terraces, inter-war semis and post-war blocks, and conservation areas cover many streets — so planning is often the first question for external work.
Much of Greater London sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
We plan monocouche in Battersea for settled weather so each elevation can be finished in one go.

England: planning and regulations
Before quoting in Battersea, 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.
If the work covers more than half of a wall, or a quarter of the building's whole envelope, it counts as renovating a thermal element, with a target of about 0.30 W/m²K where feasible.
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 Battersea: questions
How long does monocouche last?
Typically 20 years or more on a suitable wall, depending on exposure and detailing.
Is monocouche waterproof?
It's water-resistant and sheds rain, while still allowing some vapour through.
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.
