4 Cost-Effective Benefits to External Wall Rendering

Your home’s walls are a huge part of your kerb appeal besides your front garden or driveway. A well-maintained exterior will not only help you attract prospective buyers but your guests will be impressed too.

But it’s not only aesthetic appeal that makes wall rendering a good idea. Rendering helps protect your home from weathering and keeps your walls strong for much longer.

Read on to find out 4 cost-effective benefits to wall rendering so you can keep your home happy inside and out.

Better water resistance

It’s crucial that your home is waterproof. If your wall rendering is damaged or deteriorating, you could risk moisture getting through the walls or even foundations of your property. This could cause damp problems which can be very expensive to fix.

Easy to apply

Rendering use to be a labour-intensive process, but modern advancements means that it’s much quicker and easier than before. You could render your home yourself, but it’s always better to get a professional to do the job. Now that it’s quicker to do, you won’t have to pay as much in labour.

Render now dries quicker and lasts longer, so it’s much more cost-effective than it used to be.

Plenty of styles and colours to choose from

Now that there have been modern advancements, you can choose from a range of colours and styles. Whether you want a mediterranean look or a more conservative style, there will be something for you. Choose from a smoothed-out look or a textured style.

Cheaper than cladding

Wall rendering has come down in price over the last few years, so now has never been a better time to get your home’s exterior re-done. And now that it lasts longer, it makes sense to get it done now. Plus, it’s much cheaper than cladding which involves putting new materials over the existing external walls.
