Pebble dashing price in Kingsclere

The wall sets the price. A larger area, extra height and bigger stones all raise the render and material used and the time spent.

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
  • Garden walls are priced on their own, apart from the house.
  • Stone size and colour change the material that has to be bought.
  • No paint is added, as the stones are the finish.

Pebble dashing across Kingsclere

We serve Kingsclere from our base in Winchester.

RG20

What happens on the day

Dashing in Kingsclere has to be done while the render is wet, so each wall is worked in one go within the April to September season.

  • Clean and borderThe wall is cleaned and bordered with beads where the finish has to stop, which keeps the lines straight at corners and frames.
  • Render spreadA render coat is laid over the face and levelled in a single session, so the whole wall stays soft for the stones.
  • Stones appliedStones are thrown into the wet coat until it is evenly covered, and the wall is left alone while the render hardens.

Kingsclere questions about pebble dashing

Still have a question?

Is pebble dashing done in Kingsclere?

Yes. We dash house walls, extensions and garden walls in Kingsclere and across RG20, travelling from our Winchester base.

What fixes the stones in place?

Soft render. The stones are pressed into it and, as it hardens, it grips them firmly so they stay on the wall.

Can a new wall match the house?

For extensions that is the aim. Photos sent through Book Now help us see the current finish and choose stones to suit.

Which months do you dash in?

April to September, because the render must stay workable for the stones and then dry in steady weather.

Is paint needed on the finished wall?

No. The stones are the finish, so the wall can be left as it is. A paint coat later is only a choice.
