Product Information

is our most popular grain size and is the choice of most installers. This is because it’s easy to install, it goes far in terms of coverage so it’s very cost-effective, and because it’s more textured due to its slightly larger grain size, it also hides imperfections in the basecoat. Homeowners like this grain size because it doesn’t have a painted finish but it’s not overly textured – you can only really see it when you look closely! 2mm Render Grain Size Choosing between K render and sand and cement render depends on factors such as wall type, intended use, and desired appearance. Seeking professional guidance is essential when making this decision. How to Paint Sand and Cement Render The lifespan of silicone render can vary depending on several factors, such as the installation’s quality and the maintenance level. Generally, silicone render can last for around 25 years, but it may require repairs or reapplication over time.

Having the right tools and equipment on hand can make your cement rendering project smoother and more efficient while helping you achieve a high-quality finish. Always prioritize safety and proper technique when working with these tools. Conclusion Protect adjacent surfaces from splashes and remove any 507 Rendagrip before drying with warm soapy water

Choosing the perfect texture and colour

Versatility. Sand and cement render can be applied to various surfaces, offering versatility in achieving different aesthetic looks. Hi Rigsby. I know what you mean About trusting people. I used this renderers primer cause I thought that I could bang it on a few days before and my spread could just do his stuff without us having to brush on the SBR slurry and it would be better for him.

Lime does the same job as cement in that it holds the particles of sand together while setting (albeit much more slowly) but its real value is that it allows any moisture trapped in the surface of the building to evaporate out.

This is effectively done by either mechanically fixing (screws, bolts etc.) or gluing solid insulation sheets or in some cases building a timber battening frame to contain the insulation sheets over the exterior wall and then it is then covered using a mesh fixed in place and rendered over or the mesh is fixed over the insulation and rendered straight on top of that.

Rendering is very similar to plastering and is a job that requires some skill and plenty of practice. Despite this it’s certainly something that you can learn to do. Read on to find out how to render walls and everything else you’ll need to know. A Note on Mixing Render Apply a topcoat –apply a topcoat of silicone render to the repaired area, making sure to blend it in with the surrounding area. Drying times can vary in hot and dry versus humid or wet conditions, so consulting a professional for specific guidance is prudent. Common Problems with Sand and Cement Render If you are rendering around any corners or up to any doorways or windows then you will need to fix some angle beads in place as these will give you a nice, sharp, crisp corner to render up to. These are effectively the same as angle and stop beads used in plastering.If your proposed rendering will cover more than 25% of the wall you may have to upgrade the wall to comply with current insulation requirements if this is possible. In a cavity wall for example, this may mean you need to insert cavity insulation. Clean the substrate thoroughly to remove any dirt, debris, or loose material that may affect the adhesion of the render.
