If you are thinking about rendering the outside of your home, two systems come up again and again: silicone render and monocouche render. Both give a smart, modern finish, but they behave differently, and the right choice depends on your property.
Silicone render is a thin coat topcoat applied over a basecoat. It is flexible, highly water repellent and breathable, which helps it resist cracking and shrug off algae and grime. The colour is built in, so there is no repainting, and the surface stays cleaner for longer. It suits most homes and is a popular choice across Kent.
Monocouche is a cement based, through coloured render applied in one pass and scraped back to an even finish. It is durable and gives a crisp, contemporary look, and it works very well on new builds and full property makeovers.
