External House Rendering

Exterior House Rendering Specialists

High quality and peace of mind

Rendering is typically used to cover the exterior of a building, and it involves the use of render. This process is similar to plastering, but it is specifically for the outer surfaces of a structure. External rendering is the application of a smooth finish to the exterior of a concrete block building. The main benefits of external rendering are to enhance the appearance of the property and prevent moisture penetration.

BENEFITS OF EXTERNAL RENDERING

  • No need to paint: All of the renders we offer come pre-coloured (with the exception of mineral render which is delivered as a dry mix). The pre-coloured renders are highly resistant to UV light, ensuring that the colour will remain vibrant for 15 years or more after application.
  • External rendering helps to protect exterior walls from moisture damage.
  • The need for maintenance is reduced after the application of rendering.
  • The render provides weatherproofing by creating a barrier that protects the building from various elements, such as debris and water.
  • The appearance of a building is improved, making it more visually appealing and increasing its value adding a level of luxury and modernity. There are various textures and finishes to choose from to upgrade the appearance of your home.
  • When used in conjunction with an External Wall Insulation (EWI) system, rendering can improve the thermal efficiency of walls and lower heating costs.
  • External rendering can seamlessly blend new and existing parts of a building for a cohesive look
  • Silicone and Mineral renders are breathable: When speaking with building professionals or architects, they may discuss the breathability of a building. This refers to the ability of moist air inside the building to be released to the outside, reducing condensation and the potential for mold and decay.

EXTERNAL RENDER OPTIONS

Cement render:

Cement-based render can be a cost-effective option for smooth finishes, but it is not suitable for solid walls in older buildings. It is prone to cracking and requires regular maintenance to prevent water infiltration. Additionally, it will need to be repainted every few years, warns Sam Piplica, Building Standards Specialist. He also adds that, even when applied correctly, solid walls may experience water infiltration if the render is not properly maintained.

Lime render:

Lime render is a more expensive option compared to cement render and is commonly used on traditional timber-framed homes. It is typically applied to older properties that are prone to dampness or in need of improved airflow.

Silicone renders:

Silicone renders are known for their low maintenance, long-lasting durability, and crack resistance. They are lightweight, breathable, and effective at repelling water, and come in a variety of colors. Additionally, they can be combined with exterior insulation

Monocouche (through-coloured) render:

Colored cement-based render is a low-maintenance option that eliminates the need for painting. It can be applied to a variety of surfaces including brick, stone, and masonry construction with a polymer base. This render has the flexibility of traditional lime render and offers the benefit of an embedded colour.

Acrylic render:

Acrylic resin is added to this type of render to enhance its water resistance and flexibility. These renders come in a variety of colors, but are not as breathable as other options.
