Property Maintenance Coventry renders houses, flats and commercial premises in Keresley. We fit silicone thin-coat and through-coloured systems, monocouche and traditional sand and cement, repair render that has cracked or debonded, and render over sound pebbledash. The wall is surveyed first, because the right system depends on how the wall is built. Fixed written quote.

Everything your Keresley property needs
The systems we apply in Keresley and nearby Holbrooks, Brownshill Green and Radford. Which one suits your wall depends on what it is built of and how exposed it is.
Silicone Thin-Coat Render
Vapour-permeable silicone render in a colour that runs right through the material, so there is no paint film to flake or fade.
K-Rend & Monocouche
The textured, through-coloured finish most people mean by K-Rend, applied and scratched back once it has firmed up.
Sand & Cement Rendering
Conventional sand and cement, finished smooth or textured and then painted. Lower material cost, with repainting as the trade-off.
Pebbledash & Roughcast
We still apply dash and roughcast where it suits the property — and we take tired dash back to a smooth modern finish where it does not.
Render Repairs & Crack Repair
Cutting out blown, cracked or hollow render and making good so the repair blends and stays put.
External Wall Insulation
Insulation board fixed and bonded to the outside of the wall, then rendered over — warmth and a new finish in a single operation.

What we check on a property in Keresley
Every quote starts with a survey. These are the things we look at on rendering work in Keresley, and why each one changes the recommendation.
Abutments with neighbouring property
On terraces and semis the render has to stop cleanly at the boundary. We check where that line falls and how it will be finished, because a ragged junction is what everyone sees from the street.
Existing paint and coatings
Masonry paint, textured coatings and old waterproofers all affect adhesion and breathability. Some have to come off entirely; others can be bonded over. Which it is depends on what is there and how well it is stuck.
Previous repairs
Earlier patching tells us a lot — what failed, where, and whether the cause was ever addressed. Repairs that have themselves cracked usually mean the underlying problem is still live.
Downpipe and overflow positions
Pipes have to be removed and refitted clear of the new surface, with the right standoff. Overflows that discharge onto the wall are worth rerouting while the scaffold is up rather than staining a new finish.
Access and scaffold requirements
Anything above ground-floor level needs proper scaffold, and the pitch, boundary positions and access route decide what that costs and how long it stands. We work this out at survey so the quote holds.
Ground levels at the base of the wall
Soil, paving or a raised border sitting against the wall will defeat even a perfect render. We measure the gap between ground level and the damp-proof course and flag where it needs lowering.

Speak to us today0786 5778332How far is Keresley from your base?
Keresley is roughly 3.1 miles north of Coventry city centre. That is close enough that a survey can normally be arranged within a few days, and close enough that coming back afterwards is never a problem.
Have you worked around Keresley United Reformed Church?
Keresley United Reformed Church is in the part of Keresley we cover, and rendering work there is routine for us. Every quote still starts with a survey of the actual property, because no two are the same even on one street.
Can you render over existing pebbledash?
Usually yes, and it is one of the most common jobs we are asked for. The test is whether the dash is still firmly bonded: we tap across the elevation listening for hollow areas, check for cracks and loose aggregate, and cut out anything that has debonded. A sound dash takes a levelling coat and then a modern smooth or lightly textured finish. A dash that is blowing in large patches is better removed.
What is monocouche render?
Monocouche means one coat. It is a through-coloured, cement-based render applied in a single pass, usually two passes the same day to build thickness, then scratched back once it has firmed up to expose an even texture. It is durable and needs no painting. Because it is cement-based it is less flexible than silicone, so bead detailing and movement joints matter more.
Should pebbledash be removed or rendered over?
Rendering over is cheaper, faster and less disruptive, and it works well when the existing dash is sound. Removal makes sense when the dash is extensively hollow, when it has been applied over a damp-proof course and is bridging it, or when the finished wall thickness would cause problems at window reveals and the roofline. We give you the honest answer after tapping the walls, not before.
What is K-Rend?
K Rend is a manufacturer, not a type of render — the name is used so widely that it has become shorthand for their through-coloured silicone and scratch render systems. A K-Rend finish usually means a scratched, through-coloured render around 15 to 20mm thick. We fit it where a client wants that particular texture, and we will say plainly when a thin-coat silicone system would perform better on the wall in front of us.
How much does rendering cost in Keresley?
As a guide, external rendering in Keresley typically costs between £40 and £70 per square metre, depending on the system used and whether scaffolding is required. A full three-bedroom house generally falls between £2,500 and £5,000, while larger detached properties are usually in the £9,000 to £12,000 range.
