Before we quote in Pontypool
We cover Pontypool and nearby Cwmbran, Risca and Newport (Gwent). Pontypool sits around 8 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 Pontypool for settled weather so each elevation can be finished in one go.

Planning and building control in Wales
Householder rules in Wales are similar to England's: in Pontypool, a similar-looking finish on a house is often permitted, but conservation areas, flats and listed buildings need permission or consent.
In Wales, insulating or re-rendering more than half of a wall's area is treated as renovating a thermal element under Approved Document L (Wales), so building control is involved before work starts.
Where is monocouche used?
Monocouche is best on new or sound blockwork and brickwork with consistent suction — extensions, new builds and garden walls. It's applied thicker than thin-coat renders and scraped once firm to reveal the texture.

Monocouche render in Pontypool: 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.
