How Silicone Render Differs

Silicone render is thinner than sand and cement and goes on over a reinforced base coat. The colour runs right through it, so chips do not show a grey patch underneath. It flexes slightly with the building, which helps it resist hairline cracking.

More Information

Insulated Render Systems

The same render can be applied over insulation boards fixed to the outside wall. Solid wall homes with no cavity gain warmth without losing space inside. The wall ends up warmer, which also cuts condensation on the inside face.

Cleaning and Upkeep

Silicone render sheds water rather than soaking it up, so dirt and algae find it harder to take hold. North facing walls under trees still green up over time. A gentle wash with a soft brush brings it back. There is no repainting to budget for.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is silicone render worth it compared to sand and cement?

It costs more up front but there is no painting now or later, and the colour goes right through. It copes better with small building movement and stays cleaner on exposed walls. Sand and cement is still the cheaper choice if budget is the deciding factor.

Can silicone render go straight onto brickwork?

Yes, provided the brickwork is sound and clean. A base coat with mesh is applied first to give a flat, reinforced surface, then primer, then the topcoat. Loose or badly weathered brick is repaired first. It can also be applied over insulation boards.

How long does thin coat render take to apply in Chatham?

A typical semi takes around one to two weeks including scaffolding, preparation and drying time between coats. Each coat needs to set before the next goes on. Cold or wet weather extends it, as render should not be applied in frost or driving rain.
