Company description
Sand and cement render, also known as traditional or cementitious render, is a common type of rendering material used to coat and protect the exterior surfaces of buildings. It has been widely used for many years and offers a straightforward and durable solution. Here's a brief description of sand and cement render:
Composition: Sand and cement render is typically composed of a mixture of cement, sand, and water. The cement acts as a binder, while the sand provides bulk and texture to the render mix. Sometimes, lime is added to enhance workability and flexibility.
Application: Sand and cement render is applied in multiple layers onto a prepared surface. The surface is usually cleaned, repaired, and sometimes primed before the render application. The render mix is mixed with water to achieve the desired consistency and then applied using a trowel or spray equipment.
Strength and Durability: Sand and cement render offers excellent strength and durability, providing protection to the underlying structure. Once cured, it forms a hard and solid coating that can withstand impacts, weathering, and general wear and tear. It is commonly used on exterior walls, including brickwork, concrete, and blockwork.
