🏡 Rendering Options for Your Home Extension | Builders Nottingham
When planning a home extension, choosing the right external render can transform the look and feel of your property. Rendering not only protects your walls from the elements but also gives your extension a fresh, modern finish. As experienced builders in Nottingham, we help homeowners choose from a wide range of render types and colour options to create the perfect look for their extension.
Types of Render for Extensions
- Sand and Cement Render

- Monocouche Render
- A modern, through‑coloured render that doesn’t need painting.
- Low maintenance and weather‑resistant.

Colour Options for Render
With today’s render systems, you’re not limited to white or grey. Popular colour choices include:
- White & Cream → Bright, clean, and timeless.
- Greys & Charcoal → Sleek and modern, perfect for contemporary homes.
- Soft Pastels (like sage green or light blue) → Subtle yet stylish.

By choosing the right colour, your extension can either blend seamlessly with your home or create a striking contrast for a modern look.
