Leicester Home Transformation: A Fresh Look with Silicone Rendering

We’ve just wrapped up an amazing home renovation in Leicester and I wanted to share how our silicone rendering system completely transformed this property.

When we first visited the home, it was obvious the existing render had seen better days. Cracks were appearing everywhere, water was starting to get in, and the whole exterior looked tired and dated. The homeowners were fed up with how it looked and worried about potential damage to their walls.

After discussing their needs, we agreed on a full re-render using our premium silicone system. The project took a few days from start to finish, and I’m really proud of what my team achieved.

We started by stripping everything back to basics. Getting rid of all that old render was messy work but absolutely necessary – you can’t build something great on dodgy foundations! Once we had clean walls to work with, we applied our specialist base coat with reinforcing mesh. This is crucial for preventing future cracks – something many companies cut corners on.

The finishing touch was our silicone render in the soft neutral shade they’d chosen. The difference was night and day! Not only does the house look completely refreshed, but the technical benefits of silicone are significant – it repels water while allowing the walls to breathe, and its flexibility means it won’t crack like traditional renders.

If you’re considering updating your home’s exterior, I’d be happy to pop round for a no-obligation chat about how silicone rendering could work for your property.
