About Roughcasters
A roughcaster applies a textured external finish to buildings - the traditional Scottish harling that protects stone and blockwork walls from the weather while giving them a clean, uniform appearance.
Harling is one of Scotland's most common wall finishes and when it cracks, blows or starts to let in damp, getting it patched or replaced promptly prevents more expensive damage to the masonry underneath.
Ask whether they use traditional lime harling or modern cement render - on older stone buildings, lime-based finishes allow the walls to breathe and avoid the moisture problems that cement can cause.

About Giffnock
Giffnock is a suburban town on the northern edge of East Renfrewshire, immediately south of Glasgow's boundary.
It has excellent schools, a busy high street with independent shops and cafes and direct rail services to Glasgow Central.
The housing stock ranges from handsome inter-war sandstone bungalows and semi-detached houses to modern family homes on quieter side streets.
Giffnock is one of the most sought-after addresses on Glasgow's south side, with families drawn by the school catchment, green spaces and village-like atmosphere.
The popularity of the area means there is steady demand for home improvements, extensions and modernisation of older properties.
About East Renfrewshire
East Renfrewshire is a compact council area on the southern edge of Glasgow, stretching from the suburban communities of Giffnock and Clarkston southward through Newton Mearns to the rural uplands around Eaglesham and Neilston.
The area consistently ranks among the highest in Scotland for school attainment and quality of life, making it one of the most sought-after places to live in the Glasgow area. Giffnock, Newton Mearns and Clarkston are particularly popular with families drawn to the schools, green spaces and village-style high streets that give the area a distinct character despite its proximity to the city.
Barrhead is the largest town by population and has a more industrial heritage than the leafy eastern suburbs, with a character rooted in textile manufacturing and engineering. Neilston and Eaglesham, further south, are attractive conservation villages surrounded by open countryside and farmland that stretches toward the Renfrewshire Heights.
The economy is largely residential, with many residents commuting to Glasgow for work. Rail services from Giffnock, Clarkston, Newton Mearns, Barrhead and Neilston connect to Glasgow Central, most journeys taking under 20 minutes. The M77 motorway runs through the western side of the area, providing fast road access to the city centre and south toward Ayrshire.
East Renfrewshire combines the convenience of a city-edge location with a strong sense of local community and genuinely attractive countryside on its doorstep. The Whitelee Windfarm on the southern boundary - one of the largest onshore windfarms in Europe - offers miles of walking and cycling trails with views across the central belt, and the rolling farmland around Eaglesham and Neilston gives the area a rural character that belies how close it is to Glasgow.
