Why should I render the external walls of my property?

There are many reasons you should consider rendering the exterior walls of your property. The first reason is it makes your home look more aesthetically pleasing. Rendering tends to improve the look of your home. Your property may be an older building, however once you add rendering it will give it a face-lift. The next reason to render your property is it minimises damp and water ingress. Exposed brick and other building materials can lead to damp, mould and other damages. However, please note if you have damp issues contact an expert before applying rendering. Lastly, another reason to render your home is it will add insulation. It will improve thermal control and performance. Rendering will help keep your property cool in the summer and warmer in the winter time.

What are the different types of render?

There are five types of render, each of which has its own benefits and may be better suited from some properties than others.

Acrylic rendering

It is an inexpensive form of rendering and can create really vibrant colours. However, in some cases it is not as breathable as other forms of rendering. This can be problematic for some homes.

Lime rendering

Lime rendering is typically applied in 2 or 3 coats. Each coat is applied to serve a different purpose. The first coat is applied typically on brickwork, it is the base and has to set properly for the following coats to be applied properly. The second coat of lime rendering is usually used to ensure a smooth surface. The final has a similar goal like the second coat, to leave an even surface.  

Silicone rendering 

This is the most expensive option, however it provides a lot of advantages. It is self cleaning and the most breathable option of the three. It is important to remember that this type of rendering can only be installed during the summer as it needs warmer temperatures to be able to dry.

Cement rendering 

Cement rendering is a popular option for home rendering, not only on exterior walls but also inside the home. Cement rendering is cost effect, looks good and is long lasting. 

Monocouche rendering 

Monocouche rendering allows for pigmentation to be added directly to the the rendering solution. Monocouche rendering can be applied by hand or by machine. It’s key benefit is that you only need one coat.  Monocouche rendering also has other benefits such as: 

• Durable 
• Easy to apply  
• Different finishes such as: Scrape Render or Scratch Render 

Should I choose  self-coloured rendering?

Self-coloured rendering will allow you to save time and money on painting costs, because rendering that is already self-coloured will not require a paint job at the end. Additionally. self-coloured rendering is a very low maintenance render, you most likely, will not have to paint it for 25 to 30 years. Self-coloured rendering may initially cost more, but in the long run will save you money and is a great investment, not to mention is will boost the curb appeal of your property.
