Looking beyond the surface At WPS Plastering Contractors Ltd, we understand that older properties often require more than a straightforward rendering solution. This project in Ruddington, Nottingham, involved an attractive property dating back to the 1800s. Over the years, extensions had been added....

Had a visitor today. Wonder if he could fly those boards up the scaffold for me 🤣🤣

❤️ Most people see scaffolding.

We see another family trusting us with their home.

For several weeks this property becomes our workplace.

But for the homeowner...

It's still home.

That's why we always take the time to explain what we're doing, keep customers updated and make sure every stage is completed to the standard we'd expect on our own home.

Being a family business means those values matter to us every single day.

⚽ Not everything goes to plan... and that's okay.

Like many people across the country, we were hoping to see England reach another World Cup Final. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be after last night's semi-final against Argentina.

Sport has a way of reminding us that you can't always control the outcome.

What you can control is how you respond.

That's something we see in our work too.

Take the 1800s property we're currently working on in Ruddington. Once the old sand and cement render was removed, we uncovered structural issues that needed attention before we could continue.

Was it in the original plan? No.

Did it change our approach? Yes.

Did it stop the project? Absolutely not.

Sometimes the best results come from taking a step back, solving the problem properly and then moving forward with confidence.

Whether it's football or renovating an older home, setbacks are simply part of the journey.

It's how you deal with them that makes the difference.

We're looking forward to finishing another beautiful transformation over the coming days and sharing it with you.

Have a great weekend everyone.

🎾 Watching Wimbledon this week has reminded us that great results are built on consistency.

Championships aren't won with one spectacular shot.

They're won by doing the basics exceptionally well, point after point.

It's very similar in our trade.

Every insulation board.

Every fixing.

Every mesh joint.

Every straight edge.

Every final trowel pass.

None of those things grab attention on their own, but together they create a finish that will still look fantastic years down the line.

We wish everyone involved at Wimbledon the very best as they head towards Finals Weekend.

🌦️ British weather certainly keeps us on our toes!

Over the past couple of weeks we've worked through everything the weather has thrown at us.

Heavy rain.

Bright sunshine.

A heatwave.

And now slightly cooler summer days.

Rendering and external wall insulation isn't simply about turning up and putting materials on the wall.

Every day we're checking conditions, adjusting our schedule and making sure each stage is completed at exactly the right time.

Quality always comes before speed.

It's one of the reasons we never rush a project.

🏡 Not every project starts with perfect walls.

Some homes have a story that's been written over hundreds of years.

This beautiful end-of-terrace property in Ruddington dates back to the 1800s and, like many older homes, it had been suffering with damp inside.

Once the old sand and cement render was removed, we uncovered areas that needed structural repairs before we could even think about installing the new insulation system.

It's not always the easiest route, but it's the right one.

Taking the time to deal with problems properly means the finished system has the best possible foundation for many years to come.

As we head into another week on site, the insulation is complete, the basecoat has been applied and we're getting ready for the final silicone render.

It's amazing to think how much has happened before the finished render has even gone on.

Older homes often need a different approach. If you're unsure what's happening behind your render or are struggling with damp, we'd be happy to talk through your options.

⚽ What a week for England!

Reaching the World Cup semi-finals is another reminder of what teamwork, preparation and determination can achieve.

Success doesn't happen overnight.

It's built one training session at a time.

One match at a time.

One challenge at a time.

We like to think every project we complete follows the same principle.

One carefully completed stage leads to another until the finished result is something everyone can be proud of.

Congratulations England—we'll all be cheering you on in the next round.

❤️ Some people will see a freshly rendered house.

We see something much more than that.

We see the conversations with the homeowner before work even started.

The careful planning.

The early mornings.

The weeks spent on site.

The trust our customers place in us.

And finally, the moment the scaffold comes down and they get to see their home transformed.

Being a family business means every project is personal to us.

We're incredibly grateful to every homeowner who chooses WPS Plastering Contractors, and we're proud to share another completed project with you from beautiful Sibthorpe.

Thank you for following our journey.
