Brick Surfaces

Brick is perhaps the most straightforward surface to prepare. The process is simple: we start by thoroughly washing the bricks to remove any dirt, debris, or residues. Once clean, the brick surface is ready for direct application of the rendering material. This surface allows for a wide variety of finishes due to its excellent natural adhesion properties.

Concrete Surfaces

Concrete requires a bit more attention compared to brick. Before rendering, the concrete must be washed and cleaned to ensure the surface is free of any contaminants that could impair the adhesion of rendering materials. We then apply a bonding agent, such as Rockcote Keycote, which enhances the grip of the render on the concrete, providing a strong and lasting finish.

DINCEL Walls

DINCEL construction panels, known for their tendency to move and their higher risk of cracking, demand a specific approach. We start by applying an adhesion coat to prepare the surface. This is followed by a Full Mesh overlay to accommodate the material's movement and reduce the risk of cracking. For the finish, we use a flexible texture material, as it adapts better to the movement and provides a durable surface.

Fibre Cement (FC) Boards

FC boards need special care at the joints, which are potential weak points for cracks. We prepare these joints with a combination of RockCote's Patch and Prep and Fiber Mesh, or alternatively, Euromix's Pre-Patch mixed with 10% cement. This treatment ensures that the joints are reinforced and ready for a flexible overlay, which we then finish with a textured material to prevent any future cracking.

Each of these surfaces requires a tailored approach to preparation, which is key to a successful and lasting rendering job. By understanding and respecting the unique characteristics of each surface, we at Super Render guarantee top-quality finishes.
