Llanelli: walls, weather and approvals
As well as Llanelli itself, we quote in Gorseinon, Swansea and Ammanford. West Wales has a high share of older solid-walled and stone homes, many in exposed coastal or rural settings.
Parts of Dyfed 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.
If you're re-rendering in Llanelli, we'll show you what adding insulation under the silicone would cost at the same time.

Approvals in Wales
Householder rules in Wales are similar to England's: in Llanelli, a similar-looking finish on a house is often permitted, but conservation areas, flats and listed buildings need permission or consent.
Building control in Wales applies to most insulation and re-rendering jobs of this size; the quote states who submits the notice.
How is silicone render applied?
On masonry, the wall is prepared and any loose material removed. A base coat with glass-fibre mesh is applied over the whole wall to resist cracking, followed by a primer and the silicone finish, trowelled to its grain size. On EWI, the same base coat, primer and finish go over the insulation boards.

Silicone render in Llanelli: questions
How long does silicone render take to dry?
It's touch-dry within hours but needs dry weather above about 5°C for the first day or two to cure properly.
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.
Do you cover Llanelli?
Yes — we survey and quote silicone render in Llanelli (SA15) and nearby Gorseinon, Swansea and Ammanford, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
