What can an external renderer help with?

External renderers specialise in applying protective and decorative layers to the exterior walls of buildings, offering both functional benefits and aesthetic enhancements. Here’s a detailed look at the services they provide:

  • Protective Coatings: Applying render to exterior walls provides a crucial protective layer that shields the building from weather elements like rain, wind, and sun. This helps prevent structural damage caused by moisture penetration and temperature fluctuations, thereby extending the lifespan of the building.
  • Aesthetic Enhancements: Render can significantly improve the visual appeal of a building. External renderers offer a range of finishes and colours, allowing homeowners or building managers to customise the look of their property to match their style or stand out in the neighbourhood.
  • Textural Options: Renderers can apply different textures, from smooth to rough, depending on the desired look. Techniques like pebble dash, tyrolean, and scraped renders are popular for adding depth and character to building facades.
  • Insulation and Energy Efficiency: Some modern rendering systems include insulating properties that help to improve the thermal efficiency of a building. By reducing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, insulated rendering can lead to lower energy bills and a more comfortable indoor environment.
  • Repair and Renovation: For older buildings or those with existing damage, external renderers can apply new render to stabilise and cover up imperfections, cracks, and signs of wear. This not only restores the building’s appearance but also provides an additional layer of protection against future damage.
  • Specialised Render Systems: There are various types of render systems available, including acrylic, silicone, mineral, and lime-based renders. Each type offers different benefits, such as increased breathability, flexibility, or environmental resistance, catering to the specific needs of different buildings and climates.
  • Fire Resistance: Fire retardant renders are also available, which can help to prevent the spread of fire, adding an essential safety feature to homes and commercial properties.

What should I consider when hiring an external rendering company?

  1. Are a skilled company with a strong history of high standard projects  
  2. Have all the necessary licences and insurance needed to protect you and their workers 
  3. Have a good range of positive reviews from previous customers vouching for their reliability  
  4. Are offering the external rendering services you need, and are available to carry out the work in the timeframe you need it to be completed by 
  5. Are quoting a price and payment option that you are happy with, having compared the quote with other external rendering companies  

How much do external renderers cost to hire?

The cost of hiring external renderers can vary widely depending on several key factors including the scope of the project, the type of rendering material chosen, and geographic location. You may also want to add on costs like external wall insulation, but just for a rendering service, here’s an in-depth look at what you might expect to pay:

Factors Influencing Cost

  1. Size and Condition of Property
  2. Type of Render
  3. Complexity of Application
  4. Finish and Colour

Typical Pricing Structure

  • Preparation Work: Initial preparation typically includes costs for cleaning the walls, removing old paint or render, and repairing any damages. This might cost between £125 to £300 depending on the extent of work needed.
  • Scaffolding and Safety Measures: For most external rendering jobs, scaffolding is required to safely reach higher levels of a building. Scaffolding can cost approximately £2,000 for a standard detached house.
  • Material and Labor: The average cost of applying render is around £68.25 per square metre, but prices can range from £40 to £100 per square metre depending on the type of render used. Labour costs are usually included in this rate.

Cost Examples for a Detached Property

  • Scaffolding: £2,000
  • Waste Skips: £300 (for disposal of old material)
  • Rendering Costs: For a property with calculated areas requiring 142 square metres of render at £68.25 per square metre, the total for materials and labour can range from £9,690 to £12,075 depending on specific project requirements and local rates.

Other external rendering FAQs

Do plasterers do external rendering?

Yes, many plasterers are skilled in both internal plastering and external rendering, though specific qualifications and experience may vary.

What are the alternatives to external rendering?

Alternatives include cladding with materials such as timber, brick slip, or composite materials, which can offer different aesthetics and functional benefits.

How long does external rendering last?

Quality external rendering can last up to 30 years or more, depending on the material used and exposure to environmental factors.
