Frequently Asked Questions
By far the most asked question since our inception back in 2006 is “how much does it cost?” If you want to know about prices, no problem.
We are happy to give an estimate of cost over the phone, for having your house painted, rendered, repaired or wall coated, and the call is without obligation!
To speak to a team member today, please call us any time on 0786 724 77748. UK only.
If you need a more exact estimate, you can email us, providing photos if that helps, and your contact phone number, however, please note the final price would be subject to a survey to ascertain the exact cost before we agree to do the work on your home for a certain cost.
We can’t and won’t force or coerce you to choose us over another home improvement company, the decision is up to you.
To reassure you, we are run by our family. We started in the industry at the very bottom, many years ago, in fact way back in 2006.
Unlike many smaller wall coating companies, we do not use subcontractors, all teams work for us only.
In addition, many wall coating companies purchase generic branded coating materials that are made with cheap alkyd resins, but we worked for 3 years with our supplier to formulate the most durable and hard wearing textured coatings available, made with top quality pliolite resins.
The main focus of our everyday work involves External Rendering, Wall Insulation, K-Rendering, Brick Slips, Scratch Rendering etc. of houses and commercial buildings.
Our external wall coating systems are suitable for all types of wall and essentially are semi permanent, long life, seamless, weatherproof and decorative finishes.
Our main office is located in St. Albans but we cover all of London areas including Surrey, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Essex etc.

We speak to you first (by phone or email) at your request, to find out your requirements and give you ample time to check us out if you wish.
We then, if you want, arrange a date and time to visit your house to survey and measure the property (free of charge) and prepare a written specification and quote for you.
We point out any problems you may have on the outside of your house such as hollow render, pebbledash, damp patches or cracks etc. and explain what has happened and how we can fix it.
We’ll also show you samples of our work and photos of previous jobs.
If you decide to go ahead and have the work done, we prepare some simple paperwork with you, outlining exactly what work we are doing to the house, and for a fixed price.
When a survey visit takes place, it is worth noting that you would be under absolutely no obligation at all, the service is free, and we do not pressure or “sales talk” our customers at any time.
Yes, all workmanship and materials come with a 20 year guarantee.
Our contractors will issue to you a 20 year warranty upon completion of the work you ask us to do on your home, and upon receiving payment in full once the job is finished.
The price includes all proposed work and materials, equipment hire etc, scaffolding, admin fees, VAT and the issuing of the guarantee.
To reassure you further, all monies paid to one of our approved contractors by cash, bank transfer or cheque, are covered by third party insurance cover, meaning any deposit paid, and any final balance, is completely protected.
Then we promise to beat that quote, without question! You get what you pay for in life.
