What Is Rendering?

Rendering is the application of a durable exterior coating — usually sand and cement — to the outside walls of a property. It seals the brickwork, improves weather resistance and creates a smooth or textured finish. In Scotland's wet climate, rendering is one of the best ways to protect your property from penetrating damp. A well-rendered wall in South Queensferry can last 20–30 years or more with minimal maintenance.
