What is roughcasting?

Roughcasting, also known as pebbledashing or harling, is a process for coating the exterior of a structure with a layer of small pebbles or gravel incorporated in a cement or lime-based mortar. This results in a textured, weather-resistant coating that not only improves the appearance of the building but also protects it from the elements.

What are the benefits of roughcasting?

Roughcasting has various advantages for constructions. For starters, it protects against the elements, such as wind and rain, which can cause long-term damage to a building's façade. Roughcasting can also increase a building's insulation, which helps to manage internal temperature and minimise energy expenditures. It also provides a layer of fire protection and can improve the overall durability of the structure. Roughcasting can improve the aesthetic appeal of a building by providing it a distinct and textured finish.

How long does roughcasting last?

The durability of roughcasting varies according to criteria such as the quality of the materials used, the competence of the application, and the climate in which the structure is located. A well-applied roughcasting can last anywhere between 20 and 40 years before needing to be replaced or repaired. Routine maintenance, such as cleaning and examining for signs of wear or damage, can assist to extend the life of roughcasting.

Can roughcasting be applied to any building?

Roughcasting can be used on a variety of building materials, including brick, stone, concrete, and timber. However, the suitability of roughcasting for a specific building should be determined by an expert to ensure proper adhesion and the intended benefits. Additionally, certain architectural styles or historic structures may have limits on the use of roughcasting, thus these aspects must be considered before beginning with the process.

Wall Rendering

​In addition to roughcasting, we specialise in wall rendering, which sets us apart from the competitors. We can modify the appearance of interior and external walls using a range of techniques and finishes. From conventional sand and cement renders to modern acrylic and silicone finishes, we have the expertise and understanding to achieve the ideal look while also increasing the walls' durability and weather resistance.​
