Arbroath: walls, weather and approvals
We also cover Montrose and Forfar, close to Arbroath. It's roughly 16 miles from Arbroath to Dundee, the largest town in Dundee and Angus. Tayside has stone tenements and terraces in the towns, harled cottages and post-war estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Dundee and Angus: 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.
On older houses in Arbroath, stripping old render often reveals mortar repairs that are best done before re-rendering.

Planning and building control in Scotland
In Scotland, permitted development for external wall changes is narrower, so in Arbroath we check with the council's planning team where the appearance changes, and always for flats, tenements and conservation areas.
Scotland's building standards cover changes to external wall construction; we check whether your job in Arbroath needs a warrant.
Which new render should I choose?
On older solid walls, breathable lime or a mineral system is often safest. On sound modern masonry, silicone over a mesh base coat gives a durable, low-maintenance finish. If insulation is added, the finish is the one specified for the EWI system.

Re-rendering in Arbroath: questions
Can I re-render just one wall?
Yes, though matching colour and texture to the other walls may mean recoating them too.
Is it worth adding insulation?
On solid or concrete walls it's usually the most cost-effective time to do it, because access and preparation are already paid for.
How do I know if my render has failed?
Signs include cracks, hollow sound when tapped, bulging, pieces falling off, and damp patches inside behind cracked areas.
