Mixed Systems: Silicone Render & Roughcast to the Semi-Detached Building – Eaglesham

Semi-detached building done with mixed systems: Silicone-Based Render System (2 colours) & Roughcast System with Dry Dash finish.

SILICONE RENDER SYSTEM AS FOLLOWS:
-hammer test to find all the hollow/boss areas in existing wall covering
-removing all defective areas
-dubbing out to bring the level up
-proper, deep-penetrating bonding agent
-PVC beads and trims (1st fix)
-base coat adhesive render (modern, strong and specially enhanced/reinforced, breathable render)
-fibreglass mesh properly embedded in the base coat render
-extra mesh to all the corners of all the openings (stress patches)
-system fixings (if required only) (50mm, large, flat-heads, PVC fixings to mechanical tie the base coat and mesh to the substrate)
-PVC beads and trims (2nd fix)
-2nd pass of the base render
-smoothing the surface
-coloured or white, silicone-based, primer
-coloured or white, thin coat (1.5mm grains), silicone-based top-coat render
-texturing
-low modulus, external quality mastic sealants (all around the system)
