What sets the price of pebble dashing in Andover
Price follows the wall. The area, the height and the stones chosen decide how much render and how many hours the dashing needs.
Included
- Cleaning the wall and checking it will hold render
- A render coat applied to the wall
- Small stones dashed onto the wet coat
- Corner and reveal beads where the wall needs them
- A garden wall is priced separately from the house, so a small job does not sit inside a big one.
- Stone size and colour change the amount of material ordered for the wall.
- Painting the wall is not part of the price, because the stones are the finish.

We serve Andover from our base in Winchester.
What happens on the day
Pebble dashing in Andover depends on timing, because the stones must go onto render that is still wet, so the work is planned between April and September.
- Cleaning and edgingThe wall is cleaned and set out with beads where the dashed finish has to stop, such as corners, window openings and the foot of the wall.
- The render coatA render coat is applied and levelled across the wall in one working session, so the whole face stays wet long enough to take the stones.
- Throwing the stonesSmall stones are thrown onto the wet render so they bed in and stick. The wall is then left to cure undisturbed before anything touches it.

Book NowPhotos of our work
Is pebble dashing available in Andover?
Yes. We dash house walls, extensions and garden walls across Andover, including Augusta Park, Picket Twenty and Charlton, travelling from our base in Winchester.
How are the stones fixed to the wall?
They are thrown onto a render coat while it is wet, so they bed into it and stay. Once the render has cured the stones are part of the wall surface.
Can you match the pebble dash on my existing house?
For a new wall such as an extension, stones and render can be chosen to sit with the house. Send photos through Book Now so we can see what the existing wall looks like.
When can pebble dashing be done?
Rendering work is planned for April to September. The coat has to stay wet for the stones to take, and then it needs dry conditions to cure.
Does the finished wall need painting?
No. The stones are the finish and can be left as they are. A dashed wall can be painted later if a different colour is wanted.
