The Benefits of Silicon Rendering
Highly Breathable
Silicon render finishes are known for their breathability, allowing moisture to escape from your walls. This is crucial in preventing damp and maintaining a healthy environment within your home.
Water-Repellent
One of the standout features of silicon rendering is its water-repellent properties. This helps to keep your home protected from the elements, reducing the risk of water damage and maintaining the integrity of your walls.
Low Maintenance
Silicon render finishes require minimal upkeep, making them an affordable and practical choice for homeowners. Their long-lasting nature means you'll spend less time worrying about repairs and more time enjoying your beautifully rendered home.
How to Maintain Silicon Rendered Walls
Self-Cleaning
Thanks to their hydrophobic properties, silicon render finishes are often self-cleaning. Rainwater helps to wash away dirt and grime, keeping your walls looking fresh. If needed, a gentle wash with water and a soft brush can help remove any stubborn residue without damaging the surface.
Regular Inspections
While silicon renders are low maintenance, we recommend conducting regular inspections to check for any signs of damage or discolouration. Addressing any issues promptly will ensure the longevity of your render and keep your home in top condition.
Avoid Harsh Chemicals
To preserve the water-repellent properties of your silicon render, steer clear of harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaning tools. These can degrade the finish, leading to more extensive maintenance needs in the future.
