Homes and walls in Totton
Surveys in Totton also cover the surrounding SO40 district and towns such as Southampton and Hythe. Totton is about 4 miles from Southampton. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Hampshire: 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.
Extensions and new blockwork in Totton are where monocouche makes most sense.

Permissions in England
For a house in Totton, 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.
Building control applies once more than half of a wall is insulated or re-rendered, or more than a quarter of the whole building envelope, and your written quote says how that's handled.
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 Totton: 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.
Does monocouche need painting?
No — it's through-coloured. Cleaning every few years keeps it looking fresh.
How long does monocouche last?
Typically 20 years or more on a suitable wall, depending on exposure and detailing.
