Pebble dash is a strong and popular choice for house rendering. It uses small stones mixed into a wet coat to create a tough, textured surface. But how long does pebble dash last?
With proper care, pebble dash can last 20 to 30 years or more. This depends on factors like weather, application quality, and regular maintenance.
If large areas crack or stones loosen, contact a professional. Minor repairs can extend life, but old pebble dash may need full replacement after decades.
At Midrender, we offer pebble dash, silicone render, acrylic rendering, and more. Our team uses expert techniques and quality materials to ensure long-lasting results. Contact us for advice, repairs, or new installations.
