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 Killin

Killin is a village at the western head of Loch Tay, where the River Dochart tumbles over the Falls of Dochart in a wide cascade of white water through the centre of the village.

It sits in the ancient district of Breadalbane, surrounded by mountains including Ben Lawers and the Tarmachan Ridge and is a popular base for hillwalking and Munro-bagging.

The Breadalbane Folklore Centre, housed in St Fillan's Mill, tells the story of the area's history and legends.

Killin has a strong year-round community with a good range of local services and its position at the meeting point of several glens gives it a natural centrality despite its remote setting.

About Stirling

Stirling coat of arms(opens in new tab)

Stirling is a council area stretching from the city of Stirling in the heart of Scotland's central belt northward and westward into the Trossachs, the Breadalbane hills and some of the most dramatic Highland landscape in the country.

The city of Stirling sits at the historic crossing point of the River Forth, the strategic gateway between the Lowlands and the Highlands - a position that made it one of the most fought-over places in Scottish history.

North of the city, the character changes rapidly: the lowland farmland of the Forth valley gives way to the lochs, forests and mountains of the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park and further north to the remote glens of Breadalbane.

The council area takes in everything from suburban commuter towns like Bridge of Allan and Dunblane to Highland villages like Killin, Crianlarich and Tyndrum - an extraordinary range of landscape and settlement within a single local authority.

Transport links are strong around the city, with the M9, M80 and several rail lines converging on Stirling, though the Highland communities to the north rely on the A84, A85 and the scenic West Highland railway line.
