Multi-coats, reinforced Roughcast System installed to one of the detached houses in Mortonhall, Edinburgh.
FEEDBACK / REFERENCES: “When we decided to upgrade the exteriorof our Home, we looked at 2 alternative methods of tackling the job: 1 – Wall Coatings or 2 – Roughcasting. We then consulted two separate companies and received visits and then quotes. We had no hesitation in accepting the very detailed advice and quote from Jan of Edinhome for preparing and carrying the walls of our home. All aspects of the job were supervised by Jan and he visited every day to keep us informed of each days schedule. The Team were very hard-working, very obliging and did a really professional job of transforming our home. We are delighted with the finished appearance of our home and would definitely recommend Edinhome, Jan and his workforce without hesitation! – Janice Robertson”
