Before we quote in Lanarkshire
West Central Scotland has sandstone tenements, interwar and post-war council housing including no-fines and other system-built types, and many harled (roughcast) houses.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Lanarkshire: 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.
For Lanarkshire homes with faded render, we price a clean and a clean-and-refresh option.

Permissions in Scotland
Repairs, cleaning and like-for-like patching don't usually need planning permission. If the work grows into replacing most of a wall's render, we check with the council's building standards or building control team first.
Listed buildings are the exception: even small external repairs can need listed building consent, so tell us if your property is listed.
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.

Render cleaning in Lanarkshire: questions
Is render cleaning safe for EWI?
Yes, using low pressure and products suitable for thin-coat render.
Do you need scaffolding?
Usually not for a two-storey house; poles and low-pressure equipment reach most walls.
Can faded render be refreshed?
Yes — a compatible silicone paint restores colour without making the wall less breathable.
Do you cover all of Lanarkshire?
Yes. We survey and quote render cleaning across Lanarkshire, including East Kilbride, Hamilton, Cumbernauld, Coatbridge, Airdrie.
Do I need planning permission in Scotland?
In Scotland, householder permitted development rights are set by the Scottish GPDO and are narrower for external wall changes; insulating flats or tenements, changing the appearance of a house noticeably, or working in a conservation area usually needs planning permission. We check your address before quoting.
