Our Process
1. SURFACE PREPARATION
“It’s all in the preparation” and this is especially true when applying exterior wall coatings.
Prior to beginning any project the first step is to ensure all surfaces are ready for the application of the coating.
We power wash and use fungicides to ensure surfaces are clear of any grime, dirt, algae and fungi buildup.
This can also helps to remove any loose paint and debris and reveal any damage to the surface area. If necessary loose material is removed using wire brushes, scrapers or power tool.
2. RENDERING, RESTORATION and REPAIR
All surfaces are repaired and restored, damage such as cracks are repaired using acrylic bonding agents.
Crack stitching maybe required for areas where major cracks have occurred due to property movement, this is more common in block work.
Areas of blown and damaged render are removed and re-rendered to match the existing surface where possible.
3. MASKING UP
Our team always ensure yours and your neighbour’s property is kept clean and all areas that do not require coating or additional work are covered using durable film and paper, masking tape and dust sheets.
This includes all windows, doors, drain pipes, guttering, fascias, paths, patios, wood work, lawns, gardens and shrubs.
4. Base coat
The base coat is applied to all exterior walls that are to be treated, this provides a sound and uniform surface for our weatherproof coating.
5. Wall Coating Application
We use only the very best exterior wall coatings and this is the final stage of our coating process. The wall coating is applied by a specialist spray gun to achieve a consistent and professional finish.
6. Unmasking & Site Clearance
Once the job is complete and dry our team will remove all masking from doors and windows, clear the site of all rubbish.
