Rendering and cladding protect external walls while giving the property a durable, finished appearance. Both systems shield the structure from constant exposure to rain, wind and changing temperatures, while covering worn or uneven exterior surfaces that have deteriorated over time.
Many external wall problems begin when older render cracks, separates from the wall or absorbs repeated moisture. Cladding can also become damaged, loose or weathered after years of exposure. Once the protective outer layer starts failing, water finds its way into small openings, causing further deterioration and making the exterior increasingly difficult to maintain.
At LPS Property Services & Exterior Cleaning, rendering and cladding projects draw on more than 15 years of practical construction experience across a wide range of property types. Every project starts by assessing the condition of the existing walls rather than simply covering visible defects. Preparing the underlying surface correctly helps ensure the finished exterior performs reliably for years to come.

A common enquiry comes from homeowners who notice hairline cracks spreading across rendered walls. They often assume repainting the surface will resolve the problem because the cracks appear small. During inspection, the paint is rarely the issue. The existing render has often begun breaking down or separating from the wall beneath, allowing the cracks to return soon after decoration.
Another regular situation involves properties with ageing cladding that has become loose in isolated sections. The homeowner frequently believes only the visibly damaged panels require replacing. A closer inspection sometimes reveals worn fixings or moisture trapped behind neighbouring sections, making a more comprehensive repair the practical solution instead of replacing one panel at a time.
These situations occur regularly because external wall finishes experience constant weather exposure, and early signs of deterioration are easy to overlook until larger sections become affected.


Exterior wall finishes naturally experience years of rain, sunlight and seasonal temperature changes. Small cracks, loose sections or weathered surfaces gradually expand, making routine painting or cosmetic repairs less effective over time.
Many homeowners continue filling cracks or repainting damaged areas because the wall initially appears sound. Those repairs often weather differently from the surrounding surface or reopen after further movement, resulting in repeated maintenance without addressing the underlying condition.
The following signs usually indicate professional attention is required:
Render cracks continue reappearing after previous repairs.
Cladding panels feel loose or visibly uneven.
External walls show widespread staining beneath damaged render.
Surface sections sound hollow when lightly tapped.

Every project begins with a detailed inspection of the external walls to assess the condition of the existing render, cladding and supporting surfaces. Any unstable materials are identified before work begins, ensuring the finished system has a sound base.
Preparation is carried out carefully before new render or cladding is installed, with attention given to straight lines, clean detailing around windows and doors, and consistent finishing across the property. Time spent on preparation helps produce a durable exterior that performs as intended instead of concealing existing defects beneath a new surface.
Once complete, the property benefits from a clean, uniform exterior that withstands everyday weather exposure more effectively and requires less ongoing maintenance than deteriorating wall finishes. The updated appearance also creates a more consistent look across the entire building.
If your property's exterior has reached the point where repairs are no longer lasting, LPS Property Services & Exterior Cleaning is ready to assess the condition of the walls and recommend the most suitable rendering or cladding solution.
