Re-Roughcasting Across Scotland
When roughcast has failed extensively — widespread cracking, blown sections, or render coming away from the wall — a full re-roughcast is usually more practical than repeated patch repairs. We take on these jobs.

About re-roughcasting
Re-roughcasting means hacking off the existing failed render back to a sound substrate (usually brick or block), repairing any substrate issues underneath, and applying a full new roughcast system from base coat to finished chip.
Signs you need this
If patch repairs haven't held, if more than one elevation shows significant cracking or hollow sections, or if the existing render is decades old and generally failing, a full re-roughcast is typically the more durable and cost-effective long-term option.
Options
We can strip back to brick/block and apply a full new system in traditional wet or dry dash, or a through-coloured proprietary finish, matched to the rest of the property or as part of a wider refresh.
What to expect
- Describe the extent of the failed roughcast on your property.
- We review your enquiry and get back to you to arrange a quote.
- We inspect the substrate once render is hacked off.
- You agree the finish, timescale and price directly with them.

Re-Roughcasting FAQs
How do I know if I need a full re-roughcast rather than a repair? +
If more than one area is affected, if previous patch repairs have failed, or if the render is generally old and deteriorating across the property, a full re-roughcast is usually more cost-effective long term. We can assess this for you.
Do you strip roughcast back to brick before re-roughcasting? +
Yes, typically. Failing render is usually hacked off back to a sound substrate before the new base coat and finish are applied.
Can a re-roughcast match my existing colour and chip? +
We can usually source a similar chip size and colour, though some variation is normal, especially against an older, weathered original finish.
