What the job covers

- Brickwork and mortar checked and repaired before rendering
- Beads, cills and drips renewed so water is shed properly
- In England and Wales, Building Regulations apply when more than half of a wall is re-rendered
What we look for in Aberdare
We cover Aberdare and nearby Rhondda, Merthyr Tydfil and Pontypridd. Aberdare sits around 4 miles from Rhondda. South Wales has long runs of solid-wall valley terraces, Victorian and Edwardian town housing and post-war council estates.
Parts of Mid 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.
For Aberdare re-render jobs, we check whether building control needs notifying for your wall area.

Planning and building control in Wales
For homes in Aberdare, the local planning authority decides any borderline cases; changing a brick house to render, or work on flats, usually needs an application in Wales.
Building control in Wales applies to most insulation and re-rendering jobs of this size; the quote states who submits the notice.
Why should I think about insulation when re-rendering?
In England and Wales, replacing render on more than half of a wall's area is treated as renovating a thermal element, so the wall is expected to be upgraded to about 0.30 W/m²K where that's technically, functionally and economically feasible. The scaffold, preparation and finish are being paid for anyway, so the extra cost of insulation is lower than doing it later. We price both options.

Re-rendering in Aberdare: questions
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.
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.
