Coloured Render Systems

Do you wish you could update the look of your home? Are you having an extension or building a new home?

Modern home design is all about drama and impact. We can create that look for you, with great finishes to suit your lifestyle. Choose from monocouche renders (scratch render) or thin coat render (silicone render) systems, brick, stone and acrylic colour options, giving you an easy way to transform your home.

Our range of finishes

With a wide range of coloured finishes, the choices are endless.

Have you ever thought of having a coloured render system applied? Rendering the outside of your home can transform its look to make it have a modern, traditional or cottage feel. With a large range of coloured finishes available or even a brick finish the choices are endless.

There is a rendering system that can be applied to most wall types helping you to have the right finish and style for your home. For any home that is having an extension you are not constrained to having it built in the traditional brick or block but steel or timber frame structures work well for the rendering system.

So whether you are having an extension, building a new home or just wanting to improve the appearance of the home you already have, rendering the outside can really transform your home and make it the jewel of the street.

How it works

Discover how your home could benefit from modern rendering...

What are the benefits?

Rendering is a process of applying a coat of cement or acrylic basecoat to the exterior walls of a building. Modern rendering types have several benefits for a property.

They can protect/weatherproof your building
Blend new parts of a building to existing
Improve the look of the property
Replace pebble-dash effect render
Modern render systems are less likely to crack
No need to paint
Modern day renders are cost-effective.
Silicone and Mineral renders are breathable which is an added advantage

How does it work?

Rendering works by applying a coat of cement or acrylic based render to the exterior walls of a building. The process involves several steps such as cleaning the surface of the wall, applying a base coat, and then applying a topcoat. The topcoat can be made up of different materials such as silicone or mineral render.

Types of render system

Our Scratch and Thin Coat Render Systems

The two main types of render available are a scratch render system (also known as Monocouche) and a thin coat render system which can have either an acrylic, silicone, dash or brick finish.

Scratch Renders are a cement based product which are applied thickly and then scratched back to get the final finish. These are all pre-coloured reducing the need for maintenance in the future.

Thin Coat Render Systems are a multi-layered system which is applied thinner than a scratch render.
The finishes available for these renders are pre-coloured top coats, brick or stone effects.
