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 Howwood
Howwood is a village in south-western Renfrewshire, sitting on the road between Johnstone and Lochwinnoch in a pleasant rural setting among the farms and low hills of the Renfrewshire interior.
The village has a quiet, residential character with a primary school, a parish church and a community that has maintained its identity even as the settlement has grown modestly with new housing in recent decades.
Howwood's position on the edge of the Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park gives residents easy access to countryside walking and cycling and the Castle Semple Loch area at Lochwinnoch is a short distance to the west.
The village has a railway station on the Glasgow South Western Line, with services running to Glasgow Central via Johnstone and Paisley - a significant asset for a village of its size and one that underpins its popularity with commuters.
About Renfrewshire
Renfrewshire is a council area in west-central Scotland, lying immediately to the west and south-west of Glasgow on the southern bank of the River Clyde. It covers around 270 square kilometres and has a population of roughly 180,000, making it one of the more densely populated council areas outside the four main cities.
Paisley is the largest town and administrative centre - the fifth-largest settlement in Scotland - with a rich industrial heritage built on thread-making, weaving and the iconic Paisley pattern that took the town's name around the world. The medieval Paisley Abbey, founded in 1163, remains one of the finest monastic churches in Scotland and is believed to be the birthplace of the Stewart royal dynasty.
Beyond Paisley, the landscape varies considerably. The northern strip along the Clyde is low-lying and industrialised, taking in Renfrew, Inchinnan and Erskine. The centre and south-west rise into the Renfrewshire Heights, a belt of rolling farmland and moorland dotted with attractive villages like Lochwinnoch, Kilbarchan, Houston and Bridge of Weir that have a distinctly rural character despite being within easy reach of Glasgow.
Transport links are excellent. Glasgow Airport sits within the council boundary at Abbotsinch, the M8 motorway crosses the area east to west and railway lines connect Paisley, Johnstone and the surrounding towns to Glasgow Central in as little as ten minutes - making Renfrewshire one of the most accessible parts of the Glasgow city region.
