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 Carfin
Carfin is a small village in central North Lanarkshire, best known as the home of the Carfin Grotto, a Roman Catholic pilgrimage site established in 1922.
The Carfin Lourdes Grotto features a replica of the Grotto of Lourdes along with extensive gardens, shrines and a glass chapel.
Beyond the grotto, Carfin is a quiet residential community. Holytown railway station is nearby.
About North Lanarkshire
North Lanarkshire is a council area in the heart of Scotland's central belt, stretching from the eastern outskirts of Glasgow through a string of towns and former mining communities to the open moorland of the central plateau.
Motherwell and Coatbridge are the largest towns, both shaped by their industrial past - Motherwell was one of Scotland's great steelmaking centres until the closure of Ravenscraig in 1992, while Coatbridge earned the nickname 'the Iron Burgh' for the concentration of ironworks that once dominated the town.
The north of the council area includes Cumbernauld, one of Scotland's post-war new towns and Kilsyth, an older settlement nestled beneath the Kilsyth Hills. Airdrie, in the east, has been transformed by the Airdrie-Bathgate rail link into a well-connected commuter town for both Glasgow and Edinburgh.
The area has a strong working-class heritage and a proud community identity that shows in its local football clubs, gala days and community organisations. Regeneration of former industrial sites, including the massive Ravenscraig development, continues to reshape the physical landscape.
Transport links are excellent, with the M8, M73, M74 and M80 motorways crossing the area and multiple railway lines connecting its towns to Glasgow, Edinburgh and Stirling - making North Lanarkshire one of the most accessible parts of the central belt.
