External rendering is a popular way to refresh the appearance of a property's exterior walls. At Greens Plastering, we provide external rendering services to help create a neat, consistent finish suited to your property and project requirements.
Over time, exterior walls can become weathered, discoloured or uneven. Rendering can improve the overall appearance of suitable external surfaces and provide a fresh finish for your home. The appropriate rendering system depends on the existing wall, its condition and the result you want to achieve.
We consider the condition of the exterior before recommending a suitable approach. From surface preparation to render application and finishing, careful planning helps achieve a consistent appearance that complements the property.
Our External Rendering services are suitable for:
Suitability and Limitations
The success of external rendering depends on the condition and type of the existing wall. Before work begins, the surface should be assessed to identify any preparation or repairs that may be necessary.
Cracks, loose material, damp issues, unstable backgrounds or unsuitable existing coatings may need attention before rendering can proceed. The correct render system must be selected for the wall construction and exposure conditions.
We can discuss the available options and recommend a suitable approach based on your property's condition and the finish you want to achieve.
We follow a considered process to help achieve a consistent exterior finish suited to your property.
We assess the external walls, discuss your requirements and identify any visible defects or preparation needs.
The wall is prepared as required for the selected rendering system. Any necessary repairs or additional preparation should be addressed before application.
The appropriate render system is applied according to the surface conditions and project requirements, with attention to achieving a consistent finish.
The finished surface is checked and allowed to cure according to the requirements of the rendering system and weather conditions.
The right render finish can make a significant difference to the appearance of your property. The most suitable option depends on the existing wall, the desired appearance and the requirements of the selected system.
