What Old Street Customers Say About Fixiz
Honest reviews from homeowners across North London.
★★★★★
“Had the whole front elevation of our 1930s semi re-rendered in monocouche. Fixiz stripped the old crumbling render, repaired the substrate, and the new finish looks brilliant. Neat, professional, and finished on time.”
— Mark T., Old Street
★★★★★
“We had badly cracked render on the rear wall — Fixiz came out, explained exactly what had caused it, and fixed it properly rather than just patching over the surface. Really know their stuff.”
— Susan K., Old Street
★★★★★
“Used Fixiz to render the new side-return extension to match the existing house. The colour match and texture are spot on. Great communication and a fair price.”
— David H., Old Street
Rendering Old Street — FAQs
Common questions about external rendering in Old Street.
What is the best render system for a Victorian property in Old Street?
Older properties built before the 1920s need breathable render. Applying rigid cement render to lime-built walls traps moisture and causes cracking. We specify lime-based or breathable systems for period properties in Old Street — always assessing the background first before recommending any product.
How long does external render last in Old Street?
A correctly specified render should last 20–30 years. Silicone and monocouche finishes typically last 25–35 years with minimal maintenance. Correct substrate preparation and product selection are the key factors — shortcuts at this stage are the most common cause of premature failure.
Can you match existing render on an extension in Old Street?
Yes — we assess the texture, aggregate size, and colour before specifying the closest match. In most cases we achieve a very close result. An exact match on weathered render is rarely possible, and we are upfront about this before any work starts.
Do I need planning permission to re-render in Old Street?
In most cases no — re-rendering in the same material and colour is permitted development. However, if your property is in a Conservation Area, changing the render material or colour may require consent. Listed buildings always require listed building consent. We can advise on your specific situation in Old Street.
How much does it cost to render a house in Old Street?
A typical semi-detached house in Old Street costs £3,500–£8,000 to fully re-render depending on the system, height, scaffold requirements, and substrate condition. Patch repairs start from £150–£400. We provide a free site visit and written quote with no obligation.
