Homes and walls in Portadown
We also cover Craigavon and Lurgan, close to Portadown. Portadown is about 3 miles from Craigavon. Northern Ireland has many rendered and pebble-dashed homes, older solid-walled rural houses, and estates built by the Housing Executive.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across County Armagh: 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 Portadown, we'll show you what adding insulation under the silicone would cost at the same time.

Approvals in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, permitted development is set by the 2015 Order; in Portadown, changing a house's external appearance, and any work on flats or listed buildings, may need permission, so we check with the council.
Building control applies to insulation and major re-rendering in Northern Ireland, and the work is signed off by the council.
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 Portadown: 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 Portadown?
Yes — we survey and quote silicone render in Portadown (BT62) and nearby Craigavon, Lurgan and Banbridge, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
