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 Cardross
Cardross is a village on the north shore of the Firth of Clyde, about three miles west of Dumbarton, with a railway station on the North Clyde line providing services to Glasgow and Helensburgh.
The village has historical associations with Robert the Bruce, who is believed to have spent the last years of his life and died at a manor house in the parish in 1329. St Peter's Seminary, a striking modernist building designed by Gillespie, Kidd and Coia in the 1960s, stands in woodland above the village and is one of Scotland's most important post-war buildings.
Cardross has a quiet, residential character, with a primary school, a church, a village hall and a small number of local businesses. The surrounding landscape is a mix of farmland and woodland, with views across the Clyde to the hills of Renfrewshire.
The village's rail connection, combined with its attractive setting and community life, makes it a popular choice for commuters working in Glasgow or Dumbarton.
About West Dunbartonshire
(opens in new tab)West Dunbartonshire is a council area on the north bank of the River Clyde, stretching from the western edge of Glasgow at Clydebank through Dumbarton to the southern tip of Loch Lomond at Balloch.
The area has a proud industrial heritage shaped by shipbuilding, engineering and manufacturing. Clydebank was one of the great shipbuilding towns of the world - the Cunard liners Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth 2 were built in John Brown's shipyard - and the town bore devastating damage during the Clydebank Blitz of March 1941, one of the most destructive bombing raids on any British town during the Second World War.
Dumbarton, the administrative centre, sits at the confluence of the River Leven and the Clyde, overlooked by Dumbarton Rock and its ancient castle - a volcanic plug fortress that has been a stronghold since at least the fifth century and served as the capital of the medieval Kingdom of Strathclyde.
The Vale of Leven - Alexandria, Bonhill, Renton and Jamestown - runs north along the River Leven to Balloch, the gateway to Loch Lomond. The area is well connected by rail, with services from Balloch, Dumbarton and Clydebank reaching Glasgow Queen Street and Glasgow Central in 30 minutes or less and the A82 providing the main road route to Loch Lomond and the Highlands.
The proximity to Loch Lomond and the Kilpatrick Hills gives West Dunbartonshire immediate access to open countryside and the national park, while the ongoing regeneration of Queens Quay in Clydebank is bringing new housing, healthcare and public spaces to the waterfront.
