WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN K-REND & TRADITIONAL RENDER SYSTEMS?


Rendering is a skilful process that involves applying a protective layer to an exterior wall, which not only enhances its visual appearance but

also provides protection against weather conditions. In the past, traditional rendering methods involved the use of premixed cement and sand,

mud brick, stone, or cement. However, with advancements in technology, K Rend has emerged as a more high-tech alternative to traditional

rendering techniques.

K Rend is a high-quality rendering material made from silicones that repel water and provide superior protection against harsh weather conditions.

Unlike traditional rendering methods, K Rend allows the underlying wall to "breathe," releasing water vapours that naturally build up.

This results in a highly durable finish that is designed to last the test of time and offers excellent resistance to conditions such as algae growth

and lime bloom.

K Rend is available in a range of colours and finishes, providing flexibility and versatility to match any client's vision for their project.

K Rend can be applied to a variety of substrates, including brick, blockwork, and concrete, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of projects.

Whether you are looking to protect your walls from the elements or add an attractive visual feature to your home, K Rend is an ideal solution

that will provide long-lasting protection and a stunning finish.

K Rend is also highly customisable, with options for different textures, finishes, and colours. This allows architects, builders, and designers

to create unique and personalised finishes for their clients' homes.

HOW LONG DOES K REND TAKE TO SET?​

​WHAT IS K-REND?

Whether K Rend is worth it or not depends on your specific needs and the scope of your project.


When compared to traditional rendering methods, K Rend is typically more expensive. However, it is important to consider the long-term

benefits and cost savings that come with using a high-quality rendering material like K Rend. For example, K Rend is designed to last for

many years without needing to be replaced or repaired, which can save you money in the long run.

K-rend has become extremely popular in recent years, and when you look at the finished product it's easy to see why! K-rend gives a

beautiful, modern finish to the outside of your property. It also comes in a huge variety of colours and textures so you can choose a

more typical finish, or something completely unique.

Ultimately, whether K Rend is worth it or not depends on your specific needs, budget, and goals for your project. We recommend

getting in touch to determine the best rendering material for your particular project.


This depends on your exterior and the application being used by your K Rend professional. A base coat layer will take around 24 hours

to cure and then the first layer of K Rend will take between 4 to 36 hours depending on the weather conditions. Our team will be able to

assess your project and advise on the amount of time required to apply your desired product, finish it and allow it to set.


does rendering a house add value?


Traditional systems based on materials such as cement are cheap but tend to crack, become weathered and lose their finished

appearance over time. Crumbling and fissures also start to occur when the underlying structure shifts and the render material

may not allow the wall to breathe, which means that water vapour is held within the brick structure rather than evaporating.


K Rend is the latest advancement in wall rendering with high-tech silicone technology. It offers excellent weatherproofing whilst

offering a breathable surface. This prevents algae and lime bloom build-up as well as other signs of weathering. It also gives

a superior appearance to the wall and building, lasts for longer than many other render types and comes in a far broader range

of colours and even a choice of finishes.



The cost of having K-Rend applied to your home or outbuilding varies a great deal, depending on a number of factors. These include the

type of rendering product chosen, the size of the area, the existing condition of the walls, accessibility, and whether we need to remove

or repair existing finishes.



We provide a no-obligation quote based on your individual needs and your property. Before issuing a quote, we will consider all

necessary factors before giving you an idea of costings - and of course, no pressure to proceed with any work if you're not entirely sure. 


We offer an extremely high-quality service at competitive prices. We choose K Rend in the knowledge that, in many cases, it will

provide a high-quality finish that not only looks great but also protects homes while lasting the test of time.


Rendering a house can certainly add value as it can vastly improve the appearance and weather resistance of the property.

In addition, a well-rendered house can provide extra insulation, reducing heating bills and make the property more energy-efficient,

which can also add value if you decide to sell.

The value that rendering adds to a property can depend on various factors, such as the quality of the rendering job, the type of render used,

and the overall condition of the property. For example, if the render is of high quality and complements the design of the property,

it may attract more interest from buyers and potentially increase the value of the property.

However, it's important to note that rendering a house may not always add value to the same extent as other home improvement projects,

such as adding an extension or modernising a kitchen. The value added by rendering can also vary depending on the location of the property

and the demand for similar properties in the area.
