Homes and walls in Swansea
We also cover Briton Ferry and Gorseinon, close to Swansea. South Wales has long runs of solid-wall valley terraces, Victorian and Edwardian town housing and post-war council estates.
Parts of West Glamorgan fall in the higher wind-driven rain exposure bands, especially coastal and upland sites, so render specification, movement joints and detailing at cills, verges and the base of the wall matter more than usual.
Extensions and new blockwork in Swansea are where monocouche makes most sense.

Wales: planning and regulations
We check Swansea addresses for conservation areas and listing before quoting, because Welsh permitted development rules don't cover every external change.
Building control in Wales applies to most insulation and re-rendering jobs of this size; the quote states who submits the notice.
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 Swansea: 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.
