Penzance: walls, weather and approvals
As well as Penzance itself, we quote in Camborne, Redruth and Falmouth. It's roughly 16 miles from Penzance to Redruth, the largest town in Cornwall. The South West has many stone and solid-walled cottages, exposed coastal properties and a share of post-war system-built houses, including types such as the Cornish Unit.
Parts of Cornwall 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 Penzance homes with faded render, we price a clean and a clean-and-refresh option.

Most repair and maintenance work needs no planning application. We'll tell you if the scope grows to the point where building control is involved.
Why not pressure wash render?
Thin-coat renders are only 1–2mm thick. High-pressure jetting can erode the texture, strip colour, force water behind beads and cracks, and damage the insulation system underneath. A soft wash uses chemistry rather than pressure to do the work.

Yes, using low pressure and products suitable for thin-coat render.
