Challenge: This existing brick home required a complete make-over using cement rendering services. Render Set and Textures was approached to achieve the goal. The challenge was to attain spectacular results by keeping budget within the limits.
Solution: Render Set and Textures was involved in cement rendering of external brick walls of this house. We used conventional cement render mix to provide cost-effective rendering solution. The house was later painted by using Granosite System, which comprised of two coats of high quality GranoSkin membrane and GranoPrime to provide superior quality at an affordable price
The existing Coating on the external walls of this Brick Veneer Home was peeling off due to poor preparation, incorrect selection of Materials to suit the substrate and Incorrect Tradesman Procedures including lack of surface preparations
All External walls of the house where water-blasted, to remove all traces of moss, dirt, loose peeling paint and loose peeling Texture coat
To provide an entirely fresh rendering background to the walls we used Mac Acrylic Modified Render
All areas where Textured coated using Mac 1140 Sand Finish
Final procedure was for the walls to be painted over using a GranoSkin Decorative Membrane System

An Existing Bick Home with a Brick Veneer/ Fibro Top Addition
All Walls where Cement rendered using conventional Cement Render mix
The Top front fibro section was Cladded using a 75mm Polystyrene Panel and that was rendered using a Mac Render Acrylic Modified System
All Cement Rendered walls including the Polystyrene section was textured using Mac SandFinish 1140 and for added Durability walls were also painted over with GranoSkin Decorative Membrane
Challenge: The paint of the walls of the old styled terrace was peeling off and the renders were cracking as well. Set and Textures was approached to stylishly restore the walls and to make them perfectly blend with the modern architecture.
Solution: To save the beautiful terrace walls, these walls were first sand-blasted in order to scrub off the loose paint, render, dirt and moss etc. Then the rendering was repaired using high quality Mac Render system, and Painted using a Porters Cement Paint
Major Defects:
All Existing Galvanized metal Angles that where placed in Cement render by previous cement renderer on all of the house walls and perimeter Fence where rusting due to moisture and humidity
Major Cracks around the perimeter of the building due to lack of control joints placement
Major Cracks on Concrete surfaces
Remedy:
Remove all rusty angles
Remove all defective Cement Render from all areas
Make good areas by Cement Rendering and Place Expansion/control joints where required
Apply a Texture coat system to cement rendered areas
Texture coating selected was GranoTrowl 2mm and painted over with Granosite GranoSkin Decorative Membrane
