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 Peebles
Peebles is a Royal Burgh on the River Tweed, about 23 miles south of Edinburgh, with one of the most attractive high streets in southern Scotland.
The town has a strong independent retail scene - bookshops, delis, outdoor gear shops and cafes - and a community that values its self-contained character.
Glentress Forest, one of the 7stanes mountain biking centres, is just east of town and draws riders from across the UK.
Peebles has excellent schools, a hydro hotel with a long history and a setting in the Tweed valley that makes it one of the most desirable places to live in the Borders.
The A703 connects the town to Edinburgh via Eddleston and the Leadburn junction, making it a practical commuter base despite its rural feel.
About Scottish Borders
(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.
