Before we quote in Milford Haven
We cover Milford Haven and nearby Haverfordwest, Carmarthen and Llanelli. It's roughly 38 miles from Milford Haven to Llanelli, the largest town in Dyfed. West Wales has a high share of older solid-walled and stone homes, many in exposed coastal or rural settings.
Parts of Dyfed 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.
If your house in Milford Haven is pebble-dashed, covering the dash is usually simpler than removing it.

Permissions in Wales
Householder rules in Wales are similar to England's: in Milford Haven, a similar-looking finish on a house is often permitted, but conservation areas, flats and listed buildings need permission or consent.
Welsh Building Regulations expect walls to be upgraded when a substantial area is renewed, and building control signs the work off.
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 Milford Haven: questions
Does covering pebble dash need planning permission?
Changing the finish on a house usually doesn't in England and Wales outside conservation areas, but check if your house is in one or is listed.
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.
