Local considerations in Caerphilly
Surveys in Caerphilly also cover the surrounding CF83 district and towns such as Risca and Pontypridd. Caerphilly is about 9 miles from Newport (Gwent). South Wales has long runs of solid-wall valley terraces, Victorian and Edwardian town housing and post-war council estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Gwent: 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 Caerphilly for settled weather so each elevation can be finished in one go.

Approvals in Wales
We check Caerphilly addresses for conservation areas and listing before quoting, because Welsh permitted development rules don't cover every external change.
Welsh Building Regulations expect walls to be upgraded when a substantial area is renewed, and building control signs the work off.
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 Caerphilly: questions
Is monocouche waterproof?
It's water-resistant and sheds rain, while still allowing some vapour through.
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.
