External Rendering
At External Rendering Experts, we carry out professional external rendering for homes across Yorkshire and the surrounding areas.
The outside of your home takes a lot of over the years and this is where some people opt for rendering for a cleaner look. We’ll take a look at your property, explain what needs doing and recommend a render system that suits your home.
With over 25 years’ experience in the rendering trade, we’ve worked on all types of properties, from older houses needing new external wall render to modern extensions that need a clean, durable finish.
We don’t believe in using the same system for every job. Every property is different, so we’ll look at the condition of your walls, what you want to achieve and the best way to get the finish you’re after.
Our rendering services include external wall rendering, house rendering, silicone rendering, K Rend and external wall insulation rendering.
We cover Barnsley, Doncaster, Sheffield, Rotherham, Chesterfield, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Mansfield, Lincoln and York.
What is External Rendering?
External rendering is the process of applying a protective finish to the outside walls of your home. It creates a new surface over brickwork, helping improve the appearance of your property while providing protection from the weather.
People choose external rendering for different reasons, including:
- Updating the appearance of an older property with a cleaner, more modern finish
- Covering existing brickwork to create a consistent exterior look
- Finishing new extensions so they blend with the rest of the property
- Adding protection to external walls from rain, frost and everyday weather conditions
- Choosing from different finishes and colours to achieve the look you want
There are several render systems available, and the best option depends on your property, the finish you’re looking for and how exposed your home is to the elements.
At External Rendering Experts, we install a range of modern rendering systems, including silicone rendering, K Rend and external wall insulation rendering. We’ll visit your property, discuss your plans and recommend a system that works well for your home.
How does it work?
If you’re searching for how to render a wall, the process involves more than simply applying a layer of render to the surface. The preparation, choice of materials and application method all affect the final finish and how well the render performs over time.
At External Rendering Experts, we follow a careful process to make sure your external wall render is installed correctly.
Assessing Your Property
Before any work begins, we’ll visit your property to look at the existing walls and discuss the finish you’d like to achieve.
We’ll consider the type of property, the condition of the walls, the surrounding environment and which render system is most suitable.
Preparing The Wall Surface
The preparation stage is an important part of how to render a wall properly. The surface needs to be suitable for the chosen system before any render is applied.
We’ll make sure the walls are prepared correctly so the render can be applied to create a consistent, durable finish.
Applying The Render System
Once the surface is ready, we’ll apply the chosen external rendering system in stages. The exact process will depend on the system being used, whether that’s silicone rendering, K Rend or an external wall insulation rendering system.
Creating The Finished Exterior
The final coat provides the finished appearance of your home. With different textures and colours available, we can help you achieve the style you want while providing a protective finish for your external walls.
