What the crack repair includes
-
Assessing each crack
We tell shrinkage, thermal and structural cracks apart before starting work.

Raking out and cleaning
We open the crack into a V, remove loose material and clear the dust.
-
Flexible sealing
A flexible filler or mortar that moves with the wall without reopening.
-
Reinforcing mesh
Glass-fibre mesh embedded in mortar where cracks keep coming back.
-
Render reinstatement
Monocouche or render of the same type as the original, with a similar texture.
-
Final protection
Breathable paint or water repellent so water cannot get back in.
Render crack repair in Matadepera: how we do it
On terraced and detached houses in areas such as Centre and Can Torrella, 1990s and 2000s monocouche shows map cracking, cracks where columns meet brickwork and diagonals running from window corners. There, glass-fibre mesh is what stops them returning.
Before touching anything, on façades in areas such as Les Pedritxes, El Cavall Bernat and Can Prat we measure the width and direction of each crack and check whether it is still active. Diagonal cracks, cracks through the wall or cracks that keep growing go to an engineer before repair.
With over 20 years of experience we can tell a crack that just needs sealing from one that needs a different approach, and explain it in a written quote. Our work also covers areas close by: Terrassa, Castellar del Vallès and Sant Llorenç Savall.

Frequently asked questions
01Exterior render crack repair in Matadepera: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Matadepera, in areas such as Centre, Can Torrella, Les Pedritxes, El Cavall Bernat, Can Prat, Can Duran, El Pla de Sant Llorenç and Els Rourets, and also nearby: Terrassa, Castellar del Vallès and Sant Llorenç Savall. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02Are all façade cracks serious?
No. Most come from shrinkage or thermal movement in the render and are repaired with sealing and mesh. If we see diagonal cracks, cracks running through the wall or cracks that keep growing, we recommend having a surveyor check the structure first.
03Why is filling the crack not enough?
If the crack is not opened up and sealed with a flexible material, movement in the wall makes it show again. That is why we rake it out, clean it and add mesh where cracks keep recurring.
04Will the repair be visible?
We match the texture of the render as closely as we can, but new colour almost always stands out. That is why we usually recommend repainting the whole section afterwards.
