Before we quote in Bexley
As well as Bexley itself, we quote in Welling, Dartford and Swanley. 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.
For Bexley homeowners matching a new extension to an existing rendered house, we compare monocouche and silicone samples first.

Permissions in England
For a house in Bexley, external insulation or render is often permitted development if it looks similar to the existing walls; conservation areas, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need permission or consent, so we check your address first.
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 Bexley: questions
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.
Does monocouche need painting?
No — it's through-coloured. Cleaning every few years keeps it looking fresh.
Do you cover Bexley?
Yes — we survey and quote monocouche render in Bexley (DA5) and nearby Welling, Dartford and Swanley, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
