Tyrolean render cost

If you’re looking for a quick, cost-effective exterior wall coating, Tyrolean render could be just the ticket. Here, we’ll look at what exactly it is, and the average Tyrolean render cost.

What is Tyrolean render?

Tyrolean render, also known as an Alpine finish, originally came from the great Alpine regions of Austria. It’s a render finish that’s typically used on the exterior walls of both commercial and residential buildings, over the top of brick masonry and concrete walls.

When applied properly, Tyrolean render is a durable coating that can withstand extreme weather conditions and offers walls both insulation and protection from fractures. It gives walls a rough surface in a similar vein to pebbledash, but you can apply it in many different textures, patterns and colours.

Average Tyrolean render price

The total cost of applying Tyrolean render to your property will vary based not only on your Tyrolean render finish, but on your base and top render coats too.

Tyrolean render will require a professional to apply the standard base and top render coats on the wall as usual (read our guide to rendering costs to learn more). The Tyrolean finish is then applied on top in thin layers either manually or with a Tyrolean flicker gun.

It could cost anywhere between £5 – £60 per m2 for a professional to apply the Tyrolean render.

Factors affecting the cost of Tyrolean render

Ultimately, the cost of getting a professional in to apply the Tyrolean finish will depend on a number of factors, including:

• Brand
• Substrate
• Colour
• Thickness of each coat
• Areas involved
• Your location
