Assess the background and complete build-up before choosing the final coloured finish.

Our Earswick records include a house refurbishment and the village hall entrance. Both show why the existing walls and retained details matter when planning a replacement silicone render system.

The existing walls come first
The Earswick house record describes removing failed render to a sound background before applying a reinforced basecoat and silicone finish. That is a property-specific scope, not a reason to remove every existing finish on every house.
For your own walls, we assess what can be retained and what needs attention. Sound compatible render may allow a different approach from loose or unsuitable material. The quotation should explain the preparation and identify how any defects revealed during removal will be dealt with.
Retained brickwork, entrance details, windows and roof junctions help define the finished appearance. We discuss those features alongside colour and texture so the edges and transitions are planned before application begins.
Look at bond, cracking, previous coatings and moisture. Establish why the old finish needs attention before recommending repair or replacement.
Agree removal where necessary, background repairs and a compatible basecoat/reinforcement specification rather than relying on the final coat alone.
Identify which surfaces remain exposed and how the render meets windows, entrances, rooflines and adjoining finishes.
Earswick, York
The house shown above has a Pure White silicone finish in its published scope. The village hall entrance is a separate refurbishment record, describing failed render replacement, a two-coat meshed basecoat and a 1.5 mm Linen silicone finish.
These are not before-and-after photographs of one job. Each image belongs to its own record. The village hall example shows how a rendered entrance can sit beside retained brickwork without suggesting that its specification should be copied to a different building.

A suitable scope
The render finish is separate from a full external wall insulation system. If insulation is part of your plans, it needs its own specialist assessment and specification. Read the insulation guide
Planning your project
A quotation for Earswick should be based on the property and a defined scope, rather than a universal town rate. Check the preparation and access allowances as well as the finish.
Yes. The hero image links to the separate house project record. It describes the published preparation and Pure White silicone finish. The village hall record below concerns a different building and finish.
Not necessarily. The decision depends on stability, compatibility, construction and the cause of defects. The removal in a project example is not a blanket prescription for another property.
Only the correct diagnosis can establish what work is needed. Leaks, ground-related moisture, condensation and movement require appropriate attention; render is not a universal remedy.
No. It records that job's published scope and appearance. Your proposed system, detailing, exposure, maintenance and written terms need their own review.
Send the postcode, current finish and the elevations or features you want assessed. We can discuss availability and a defined scope without you needing to choose a technical specification first.
