House Rendering & Plastering in Great Eccleston
Stone cottages, farmhouses, barn conversions and newer village homes: we render and plaster the lot, about 20 minutes from our base in Thornton-Cleveleys.
Your Local Renderers in Great Eccleston
Great Eccleston is a proper working village: a square in the middle, farmland in every direction and the agricultural show on the calendar every summer. We know it well. DKL Rendering is based in Thornton-Cleveleys, about 20 minutes away, and we've been doing house rendering and plastering on this side of the Fylde for over 15 years, from cottages by the square out to the farms beyond it.
Great Eccleston isn't blessed with rendering companies of its own, so a hunt for renderers near me from a PR3 postcode mostly brings up firms travelling in, ones who'll do the job but might never pass the village again. We're close enough that this is regular ground for us, so Elswick, Inskip, St Michael’s on Wyre and Little Eccleston get the same service as the houses in the village itself.
We're fully insured, we work with K-Rend, Weber and traditional sand and cement, and every job starts with a free written quote, usually with you within 48 hours. Most jobs run 3 to 7 days on site. As a rough guide, a 3-bed semi costs £3,000 to £6,000 to render, with heavier prep or a dearer system pushing it towards the top of that. Older solid-wall properties want a bit more thought, so we'd rather walk round the house before we put a number on it.
The Great Eccleston Homes We Work On
The housing here is a real mix for a village this size. Around the square you've got solid-wall stone cottages that have stood for generations, and out along the lanes it's farmhouses, barn conversions and the odd smallholding. Add the modern infill homes built around the edges and you can find thick stone walls and new blockwork within a hundred yards of each other. They can't all be rendered the same way, and treating them as if they can is how old walls end up damp.
The weather is the other half of the story. Great Eccleston sits in open country near the Wyre with nothing much to break the wind, so rain comes across the fields and lands hardest on west and south-west elevations. On newer cavity walls that shows up as cracked render and green staining. On the old solid walls it's worse: a hard cement coat traps moisture in the stone and pushes the damp indoors. Those cottages need breathable systems and careful prep, not a quick skim of cement over the top.
We cover the whole of Great Eccleston, including Elswick, Inskip, St Michael’s on Wyre and Little Eccleston.
