When does pebble dash need removing?
Where it's widely hollow, cracked or letting water in, or where the wall underneath needs to be inspected or repaired. Removal is dusty and noisy and can damage the face of soft bricks, so it's not the default.

Cover pebble dash in Omagh: questions
Will the stones show through?
No. A levelling base coat with mesh fills over the stones before the finish goes on.
Can I paint pebble dash instead?
You can, but it doesn't fix hollow areas or cracks, and paint on dash often needs redoing every few years.
Is it cheaper to cover pebble dash or remove it?
Covering is usually cheaper and less disruptive, as long as the dash is sound.
Do you cover Omagh?
Yes — we survey and quote pebble dash covering in Omagh (BT78) and nearby Irvinestown, Strabane and Enniskillen, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
