Wall coatings are waterproof and breathable - protecting properties from the elements

Every single day, buildings are under constant attack from the wind, sun, freezing temperatures, pollution and rain.

Water is the single most common cause of serious damage to buildings, whether they are new or old. It can transport itself into the very fabric of the structure where, if left unchecked, it will wreak havoc.

Blown pebbledash, render, brickwork and penetrating damp

Airborne pollution is also becoming a significant threat. Increased vehicle usage has created higher levels of sulphur and carbon dioxide.

These gases can permeate through the walls, where they create hairline cracks, which can crumble brick, pebbledash or stonework, resulting in internal damp and in extreme cases, severe structural damage.

Both these problems are bad enough on their own, but they can encourage further trouble - leaving buildings wide open to the invasion of mould, which not only looks unsightly but also can cause health problems.

And when you consider that a home is the single biggest purchase that most people ever make, isn't it important to protect that investment with the best possible coating solution?
