# External rendering repair in Winchester

> External rendering repair in Winchester by Heath plastering and rendering. Cracked and blown render cut back and repaired to match. Book Now.

Heath plastering and rendering repairs cracked, blown and failing render on house walls in Winchester, cutting back the damaged areas and rendering them again to blend with the wall.

## External rendering repair price

The price depends on how much render has failed, how high it sits and whether the wall behind it is sound.
- External rendering repair: from £350
- A few cracks and a wall that needs large sections taken off are priced very differently.
- Repairs high on the house need scaffold, which is part of the price.

### Included
- Sounding the wall to find loose render
- Cutting back to a firm edge
- New render coats in sand and cement
- Finishing to match the surrounding wall

### Not included as standard
- Painting the render afterwards
- Repairs to gutters, roofs or windows causing the damage
- Rendering the whole house, which is priced as rendering

## When to book rendering repairs

Render that has cracked, bulged or fallen away lets water in behind it, so repairs are worth doing before the damage spreads.
- **Cracks in the render:** Hairline and wider cracks are opened, cleaned and filled with render so rain cannot run in behind.
- **Blown or hollow patches:** Sections that sound hollow when tapped have lost their grip on the wall and are cut out and replaced.
- **Damaged corners and edges:** Knocked beads, chipped corners and broken reveals are rebuilt so the elevation is straight again.

## What happens on the day

A render repair starts by finding how far the damage runs.
- **Find the extent of the damage:** The wall is tapped across the area to locate every hollow patch, and the failed render is marked for removal.
- **Cut back and prepare:** Loose render is taken off to a sound edge, and the exposed wall is cleaned and wetted so new render bonds.
- **Render and finish:** New coats are applied, levelled and finished to match the texture and line of the existing wall.

## External rendering repair questions

### Do you repair walls that have cracked or blown?

Yes. Cracked and blown render is cut back to firm edges and repaired in sand and cement.

### How can I tell if render is blown?

Tap the wall. A hollow sound means the render has come away from the masonry behind it, even when the surface looks intact.

### Can you repair render in winter?

External rendering is planned for April to September, when the weather suits it. Photos help us see what a repair involves before then.

### Will the repair match the rest of the wall?

The new render is finished to the same texture as the old, though painting the whole elevation gives the most even colour.
