Living in Perth means enjoying beautiful surroundings, but it also means dealing with a specific microclimate. Sitting on the banks of the River Tay, homes here are prone to high humidity and penetrating damp.

Additionally, because Perth is inland, winter nights are colder than on the coast.

The Risk: Moisture from the river enters the pores of your masonry. When the temperature drops, this moisture freezes and expands, causing “spalling” (flaking stone) and cracked roughcast.

The Solution? Pro-Perla Technology.

Standard exterior paint often peels after one harsh Perthshire winter. We use Pro-Perla, a super-hydrophobic coating that lines the pores of your wall without sealing them up. This keeps the damp out but lets the building breathe—crucial for Perth’s mix of historic stone villas and modern harled estates.
