Project Details
Silicone Render System for a Residential Development in Exmouth
Riley’s Pro Trowel completed the external silicone render package for this residential development in Exmouth, Devon.
The project required a durable, clean and consistent exterior finish suitable for a modern development. The work included preparation of the render carrier board, reinforcement with fibre mesh basecoat, and the application of a pre-tinted silicone render topcoat.
Render Carrier Board and Basecoat Preparation
A good silicone render system depends on the correct preparation underneath the final finish. For this project, the render carrier board provided the backing surface for the external system, with a reinforced basecoat used to help create stability and consistency across the elevations.
The fibre mesh basecoat stage is important because it helps strengthen the render system and reduce the risk of movement-related cracking when installed correctly as part of the full specification.
Silicone Render Finish
The final topcoat was completed using a pre-tinted silicone render. Silicone render is commonly used on modern developments because it offers a clean finish, good weather resistance and lower maintenance than many traditional exterior finishes.
For residential developments, consistency across the building matters. The finished render needed to look clean across larger surfaces while also being carefully finished around windows, corners, edges and junctions.
Project Outcome
The completed project gave the development a sharp, modern external finish with a durable silicone render system designed for long-term performance.
For builders, developers and homeowners looking for silicone rendering in Exmouth, Devon and across the South West, this project shows the type of external finish Riley’s Pro Trowel can deliver.
