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.

Also covers:
  • harling
  • roughcasting
  • pebbledash
  • render
  • external wall coating

About Jedburgh

Jedburgh is one of the great abbey towns of the Scottish Borders, sitting on the Jed Water about ten miles north of the English border.

Jedburgh Abbey, founded in the 12th century by David I, dominates the town and is one of the finest examples of Romanesque and Gothic architecture in Scotland.

Mary, Queen of Scots stayed in a fortified house here in 1566 - it is now a museum dedicated to her story.

The town has a compact centre with independent shops, a castle jail museum and a rugby tradition that rivals any town in the Borders.

Jedburgh sits on the A68, the main route between Edinburgh and the north of England, giving it a natural passing trade alongside its resident community.

About Scottish Borders

Scottish Borders coat of arms(opens in new tab)

The Scottish Borders is the largest council area in southern Scotland, stretching from the edge of Edinburgh and East Lothian in the north to the English border in the south.

It is a landscape of rolling hills, river valleys and market towns - the Tweed, Teviot, Ettrick and Yarrow rivers carve through countryside that has been fought over, farmed and written about for centuries.

Hawick and Galashiels are the largest towns, but the region's character is shaped by a string of smaller burghs - Kelso, Jedburgh, Peebles, Melrose and Selkirk - each with its own abbey ruins, common riding traditions, or rugby loyalties.

The Borders Railway, reopened in 2015, connects Tweedbank and Galashiels to Edinburgh Waverley, bringing the northern Borders within commuting distance of the capital for the first time in decades.

The region is known for its textile heritage, its abbeys and an outdoor culture built around hill walking, fishing, mountain biking and rugby - a place where community identity runs deep and the landscape is never far away.
