Rendering in Reigate
Rendering is the application of a protective and decorative coating to an external wall — traditional sand-cement, pebbledash (a wet render finished with dashed aggregate), or a modern silicone or monocouche system — to weatherproof the wall and improve its appearance.
In Reigate, that covers Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley. Reigate sits at the foot of the North Downs, with a historic town centre and a number of well-established residential areas featuring substantial Victorian, Edwardian and interwar houses. Its position near the Surrey Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB) shapes planning policy for parts of the borough.

Property styles in Reigate
Reigate has a strong stock of larger detached and semi-detached Victorian and Edwardian houses, along with mock-Tudor interwar properties, many of which suit generously proportioned rear and wraparound extensions or double-storey additions.
Planning considerations
Reigate & Banstead Borough Council is the local planning authority. The historic town centre is a conservation area, and parts of the borough fall within the Surrey Hills National Landscape (National Landscape, formerly AONB), which brings additional design and landscape considerations for extensions and new structures.

FAQs
Rendering in Reigate: FAQs
Do you provide rendering across all of Reigate?
Yes, we cover the RH2 postcode area in full, including Woodhatch, Reigate Heath, Meadvale, Wray Park, Colley.
What's the difference between traditional render and silicone render?
Traditional sand-cement render is a well-established, cost-effective option but can be prone to cracking and staining over time. Silicone and other modern polymer renders are more flexible, self-cleaning to a degree, and resist algae growth better, at a higher initial cost.
Can pebbledash be removed and replaced with a smooth render?
Yes, this is a common refresh — the pebbledash and old render are removed back to a sound substrate, then a new render system is applied and finished smooth or textured as preferred.
Does the Surrey Hills National Landscape designation affect extensions in Reigate?
For properties within the designated area, additional weight is given to landscape character and visual impact in planning decisions. We check whether your property falls within the boundary during feasibility.
