The River Severn runs through the heart of Gloucestershire, and the wide Severn Vale creates a persistent source of elevated humidity that affects masonry across a broad band from Tewkesbury south through Gloucester and Lydney toward the Severn Estuary. Properties within the Vale receive consistently higher moisture loading on their exterior walls than their annual rainfall figure suggests — the tidal Severn brings estuary-quality humid air many miles inland, particularly in autumn and winter. In the Forest of Dean to the west, rainfall regularly exceeds 820mm annually, and west-facing elevations on Forest properties receive the full force of Atlantic south-westerlies.
Gloucestershire has three distinct housing character zones. The Cotswold belt running through Cirencester, Bourton-on-the-Water, Moreton-in-Marsh, and Stow-on-the-Wold is characterised by traditional Cotswold limestone properties with lime and stone render — beautiful but highly porous and vulnerable to frost spalling. Gloucester and Stroud contain dense Victorian terrace stock with rendered facades. Cheltenham's suburbs are predominantly 1930s semi-detached with rendered and pebbledash finishes. The Forest of Dean towns of Coleford and Cinderford have stone-built Victorian properties exposed to the county's highest rainfall.
Severn Vale properties develop algae and green growth on north and east-facing elevations at a significantly faster rate than inland English properties — the Estuary humidity accelerates biological growth even during dry periods. Cotswold stone properties in the north and east of the county show lime render spalling that worsens each winter as frost penetrates the porous surface. Victorian terraces in Gloucester and Stroud suffer render cracking along mortar courses in the valley locations' frost pockets. A fully waterproof, breathable coating seals out the moisture and eliminates the conditions for biological growth.

Check If Your Property QualifiesTakes less than 60 seconds 0333 772 3623 Call our customer team freeWe are a family-run business with over 30 years of experience applying exterior coatings across England. Our teams cover Gloucestershire regularly and understand the specific challenges that ~820mm/year rainfall (Forest of Dean/western edge) presents for masonry throughout the county. Every surveyor and application team member is a Pinnacle employee — we never use sub-contractors.
Most properties are suitable — rendered walls, pebbledash, brick, and stone can all be coated. Gloucestershire's mix of Cotswold stone cottages (Cirencester and surrounding towns) and other property types are all surfaces we regularly work on. The best way to find out is a free, no-obligation survey. Our surveyor will assess your property and give you a definitive answer at no cost.
Prices start from £3,500 for smaller properties and typically range to £12,000 or more for larger detached homes, depending on size, access requirements, and the condition of the existing exterior. We provide a fixed price after surveying your Gloucestershire property — no hidden costs and no pressure to proceed.
Every job comes with a full 20-year guarantee. If anything covered by the guarantee fails during that period, we return to your Gloucestershire property and fix it at no cost to you. No quibbles, no qualifications.
Most Gloucestershire homes take 3–7 days to complete depending on size and the condition of the existing exterior. Larger properties or those requiring significant preparation work can take up to two weeks. Our team works continuously on your property — we do not split the crew between multiple jobs at once.
In the vast majority of cases, yes. Our coatings create a fully waterproof but breathable barrier that prevents water ingress while allowing any moisture already in the wall to escape. Given Gloucestershire's ~820mm/year rainfall (Forest of Dean/western edge), this breathable waterproofing is particularly valuable. Damp protection is covered under the 20-year guarantee.
Yes — we have experience coating traditional Cotswold limestone and lime-rendered properties across Gloucestershire, from Cirencester and Bourton-on-the-Water to Moreton-in-Marsh and Stow-on-the-Wold. These properties require careful surface preparation and we assess every Cotswold property at the free survey stage. The 20-year guarantee applies to Cotswold stone and lime render surfaces as to any other type we treat.
Yes — our before and after gallery on this page shows examples from completed jobs. We are also happy to provide references from customers in Gloucestershire on request. Ask your surveyor at the time of your free survey and they will be happy to arrange this.
