SILICONE RENDERING
What Is Silicone Render?
Silicone render is a modern thin-coat exterior render system designed to provide a decorative, durable and weather-resistant finish to external walls. Silicone technology gives the finished surface water-repellent properties while still allowing water vapour to pass through the system.
Unlike traditional painted render, the colour is incorporated into the finish and is available in a wide range of shades. Silicone render can also be supplied in different textures, allowing the appearance to be chosen to complement the style of the property.
Its flexibility, vapour permeability and resistance to weathering make silicone render suitable for a wide range of properties, subject to the condition and construction of the existing walls and the correct preparation of the substrate.
P3 Plastering assesses the existing surface before recommending the appropriate preparation and render system for each project.
THE BENEFITS OF SILICONE RENDER
Why Choose Silicone Render?
Silicone render provides a water-repellent exterior finish that helps protect external walls from exposure to rain and changing weather conditions.
The system remains vapour permeable, allowing water vapour to pass through the finished surface rather than trapping it within the wall.
Silicone render is designed to provide a flexible, hard-wearing finish, helping it accommodate normal minor movement better than more rigid traditional finishes.
Its water-repellent surface helps reduce the amount of moisture and dirt retained by the finish, making silicone render relatively easy to maintain.
OUR PROCESS
The Silicone Rendering Process
01
Surface Assessment & Preparation
The existing walls are assessed and properly prepared to provide a clean, sound and suitable surface for the chosen silicone render system.
02
Priming the Surface
Where required by the chosen system, the prepared surface is primed to provide the appropriate background for the subsequent render layers.
03
Base Coat & Reinforcement
A suitable base coat and reinforcing mesh are incorporated where required by the substrate and the specification of the chosen render system.
04
Silicone Render Application
The silicone render finish is applied evenly over the prepared surface in accordance with the manufacturer’s specification.
05
Creating the Texture
The freshly applied silicone render is worked to create the required texture and a consistent appearance across the finished surface.
06
Setting & Final Check
The completed finish is allowed to set under suitable conditions before the work is checked for an even, professional finish.
COLOURS & FINISHES
Silicone Render to Complement Your Property
Silicone render is available in a wide range of colours, making it possible to choose a finish that complements the style and character of your property. From subtle neutral shades to stronger contemporary colours, the options vary according to the particular render system selected.
The finished appearance can also be influenced by the texture and grain size of the silicone render, allowing different looks to be achieved while retaining the performance benefits of the system.
We can discuss the available colour and finish options for the chosen render system and help you select a suitable finish for your property.

Outside wall render
The review says Neil was polite and professional, arrived when promised, completed the small external-wall rendering job the same day, and that the customer would recommend him.

External render to whole house
Extremely happy with the work Neil has done to our house. It was far from being a straightforward job and he carried it out brilliantly, making sure any issues were discussed with us, and making sure the site was cleaned and clear each night. The job was started and finished on time and to an excellent standard. Would definitely recommend to others.

Silicone render provides a durable, flexible and water-repellent exterior finish. Its vapour permeability, relatively low maintenance requirements and wide choice of colours make it suitable for many different properties.
It can be used on a wide range of properties, but suitability depends on the construction, substrate and condition of the existing walls. We assess the property before recommending the appropriate preparation and render system.
Potentially, but the existing render must first be assessed to determine whether it is sound and suitable. Additional preparation or removal of unsuitable existing material may be required.
Silicone render is available as a coloured finish, so it does not normally require painting after application. A wide range of colours is available depending on the chosen manufacturer and system.
A correctly specified and professionally applied silicone render system is designed to provide a durable, long-lasting finish. Its lifespan will depend on the particular system, substrate, exposure, installation and ongoing condition of the building.
Timescales depend on the size and condition of the property, access, preparation required, weather conditions and the particular render system. We can give you a clearer indication after assessing the project.
The cost depends on factors including the area to be rendered, condition of the existing walls, access, preparation and the system selected. P3 Plastering provides individual quotations based on the requirements of each project.
