Traditional Rendering

Traditional rendering is a time-tested method of applying a durable coating to exterior walls, offering both protection and aesthetic appeal. It involves the application of a mixture of sand, cement, and lime to the walls, which is then smoothed to provide a solid finish. This type of rendering helps protect buildings from weather damage, damp, and deterioration. It can be applied to a wide range of surfaces and is an ideal choice for properties seeking a more classic, textured finish. Traditional rendering is also highly adaptable, as it can be painted or textured to suit a variety of home styles. When applied correctly, it offers long-lasting results that not only enhance the building’s appearance but also improve its overall weather resistance.

Silicone Rendering

Silicone rendering is a modern rendering system designed for improved performance and enhanced weather protection. Made from silicone resins, this rendering offers water-repellent properties, which prevent moisture from penetrating the walls while still allowing them to breathe. This makes it highly suitable for areas exposed to harsh weather conditions, offering superior durability compared to traditional rendering methods. Silicone rendering also has excellent flexibility, meaning it is less prone to cracking, even under temperature fluctuations. Additionally, it can be easily cleaned, maintaining its fresh appearance for longer periods.

External Wall Insulation (EWI)

External Wall Insulation (EWI) is a highly effective solution for improving the thermal performance of a building. EWI involves applying an insulating layer to the external walls of a property, which is then covered with a durable rendering finish. This system is particularly beneficial for properties with solid walls that lack the insulating properties of cavity walls. Not only does EWI improve energy efficiency, reducing heating costs, but it also enhances the exterior appearance of a building, adding a modern touch. EWI is available in a range of finishes, including traditional render, silicone, or acrylic, allowing for a tailored look. With EWI, homes are better insulated against the cold, which contributes to increased comfort and reduced energy consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions

we understand that any construction or renovation project can raise a lot of questions. To help guide you through the process, we’ve put together answers to some of the most common queries we receive from our clients.

What is the difference between traditional rendering and silicone rendering?

Traditional rendering uses a mixture of sand, cement, and lime to create a textured finish, providing weather protection. Silicone rendering, on the other hand, is made with silicone-based resins, making it water-repellent, flexible, and more resistant to cracking, with minimal maintenance required. It’s ideal for areas prone to harsh weather conditions.

How long does rendering last?

Rendering can last up to 20 years or more, depending on the type of render used and the maintenance it receives. Silicone render tends to have a longer lifespan due to its resistance to cracking and moisture, while traditional render may require occasional re-painting or maintenance to maintain its appearance and effectiveness.

Can you render over existing painted walls?

Yes, it is possible to render over existing painted walls, but the success of the application depends on the condition of the surface and the type of paint used. To achieve a strong bond between the render and the wall, the painted surface must be clean, dry, and free from peeling paint or other contaminants. If the paint is oil-based or glossy, it may need to be scraped or sanded off to ensure proper adhesion. Our team at Essa Building Solutions will carry out a thorough inspection of your walls before applying the render, ensuring that the surface is appropriately prepared for the best possible finish. We also take extra care to protect your property and surrounding areas during the rendering process.

Is rendering a messy process?

Rendering does involve some degree of mess, as it is a wet and gritty process. However, our professional team at Essa Building Solutions takes great pride in maintaining a clean and organised worksite throughout the entire project. We use protective coverings to shield your property and landscaping, ensuring that dust and debris are kept to a minimum. Before starting the rendering process, we make sure to properly prepare the site and clear the area of any obstacles. After the render has been applied, we thoroughly clean up the work area, leaving your property tidy and free from any mess. We aim to provide a hassle-free experience, so you can enjoy your newly rendered property without any unnecessary disruption.

Will rendering my house help reduce energy costs?

Yes, rendering your property, particularly with external wall insulation (EWI), can significantly improve the energy efficiency of your home. EWI adds an insulating layer to your exterior walls, preventing heat loss during colder months and helping keep your home cooler in summer. By improving your home’s thermal performance, you reduce the need for heating and air conditioning, resulting in lower energy bills. For homes that are older or poorly insulated, rendering with EWI can make a noticeable difference in comfort levels and energy savings. This makes it an excellent long-term investment for both environmental and financial reasons.
