Suitable Surfaces
Renovating Existing Surfaces
Rendering your existing brick or block facade will instantly improve the look of your home and add significant value to your property for a reasonably small investment.
The clean, modern look of a rendered home provides a uniform appearance with an attractive texture which can be enhanced with your choice of colour.
And not only can renders and textures be applied over:-
- Brick
- Block and
- Fibre Cement Sheeting
These days they can also be successfully applied over a number of lightweight, cost effective and energy efficient building materials such as:-
- Aerated concrete blocks - learn more here
- Expanded Polystyrene walling systems - learn more here
Apart from the energy efficiency and cost effectiveness of these new building systems they also enable coating over areas of a home or commercial building previously restricted from being rendered. For example, old weatherboard areas can be replaced with expanded polystyrene and effectively rendered and textured to an attractive modern finish.
