What we look for in Aberdeen
As well as Aberdeen itself, we quote in Inverurie, Peterhead and Montrose. North East Scotland has granite and stone-built homes, harled cottages and post-war estates, with exposed coastal settings along much of it.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire: 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.
If you're re-rendering in Aberdeen, we'll show you what adding insulation under the silicone would cost at the same time.

Approvals in Scotland
Scottish householder rules mean many Aberdeen jobs that change the outside of a house need a planning application; we confirm the position before quoting.
Where a building warrant is needed for Aberdeen work, it's obtained before installation starts, and the quote says who arranges it.
Is silicone render maintenance-free?
Not quite. It stays cleaner than most renders because water runs off and dries quickly, but north-facing or tree-shaded walls can still gather algae. A gentle biocide wash every few years keeps it looking new. Pressure washing is avoided because it can damage the surface.

Silicone render in Aberdeen: questions
Can silicone render go over old render?
If the old render is sound and well bonded, often yes after cleaning and priming. Hollow or cracked areas are cut out and repaired first.
Can I paint silicone render later?
Yes, with a compatible silicone paint, though through-coloured render rarely needs it.
Does silicone render crack?
The mesh-reinforced base coat and the render's flexibility make cracking much less likely than with sand and cement, but structural movement in the wall can still show through.
Do you cover Aberdeen?
Yes — we survey and quote silicone render in Aberdeen (AB10) and nearby Inverurie, Peterhead and Montrose, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
