What we look for in Westhoughton
We cover Westhoughton and nearby Atherton, Hindley and Tyldesley. Westhoughton is about 13 miles from Manchester. The North West has one of the largest stocks of pre-1919 solid-wall terraces in England, alongside Pennine stone houses and post-war estates.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Greater Manchester: 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.
Repair visits in Westhoughton can combine crack repairs with replacing rusted beads at corners and window edges.

Planning and building control in England
Repairs, cleaning and like-for-like patching don't usually need planning permission or building control. If repairs grow into re-rendering more than half of a wall, Building Regulations energy rules can apply.
When is repair not enough?
If more than about a fifth of an elevation is hollow or cracked, re-rendering is often better value. Re-rendering more than half of a wall also brings Building Regulations into play in England and Wales.

Render repairs in Westhoughton: questions
How soon can repairs be done?
Small repairs can usually be booked once a dry weather window is forecast.
Can you match my existing render colour?
We get as close as possible, but weathered render rarely matches a new patch exactly. A full-elevation recoat gives an even finish.
Are hairline cracks a problem?
Fine crazing is often cosmetic. Cracks wider than about 1mm, stepped cracks or bulges should be checked, as water can get behind.
