Adding render to your renovation is a fantastic way to revitalise and add value to your house. Where should you begin, though, when rendering? To assist you in renovating your home with render, the professionals offering external house rendering have put together some tips on a budget, colour, renders and other topics.

Prepare the House

Is your home getting on in age? It is best to square things up so that the shape fits with the contemporary render finish before you think about rendering. Before rendering, all the walls must be dry. If you have recently repaired some bricks, the mortar must cure. It’s best to find out before you start if changing the look of your house requires council approval.

Vibrant Colour

It will also give the appearance of being soiled and stained! Render painting is one method to incorporate colour while also adding a layer of defence. Be aware that there will be a waiting period while the render cures and sets if you decide to render and paint. This waiting period is usually 4 weeks. Using a modern colour scheme will help if the house needs to be reasonable. When choosing colours, don’t forget to consider the surrounding homes and the garden.

Spending Plan

Since rendering has lifetime value, it is a cost-effective way to update any home’s exterior. 1% of the entire property value should be allocated to the cost of rendering your home. If 1% isn’t enough money to finish the outside, think about rendering just the facade walls to save money. This will guarantee that the street-front view is beautiful! You could either bag off or leave the walls in place for the remainder of the house.

Acrylic Illustrations

Due to modern technology, acrylic renders are available! Compared to cement-based renders, they are more adaptable and can be used to paint, cover masonry, brick, blue board, polystyrene and other surfaces. However, acrylic rendering is quite costly because it gives the outside of your horse a unique appearance with various textures and colours. Since acrylic renders don’t suffer from the same problems as cement-based renders when exposed to the weather, adding colour to them is safe. Acrylic renders are strong, flexible, resistant to cracks, weather resistant, high impact-tolerant and anti-fungal.

Beyond Simply Being Exterior Walls

Not just the exterior walls of your house can be painted with render painting. To finish off the updated appearance of your house, don’t forget to add the letterbox, retaining walls and front fence. You can use render indoors as well. Use it to revitalise outdated interior brickwork or to build a feature wall.

Extends the Life and Value of Your House

Did you know that, for a relatively small investment, external house rendering raises the value of your house and property? It also changes the way your house looks from the outside, camouflaging any shoddy brickwork and giving it a more contemporary appearance.

Render is useful as well! Your home is shielded from the elements and normal wear and tear over time by rendering. It functions similarly to an extra layer of insulation. Rendering can stop moisture and dampness from penetrating the walls, protecting them from damage. With all of this protection, your house may last longer.
