Mapei finish chosen for MAC Rendering façade

A Mapei render finish has been used to complete an extensive façade project at a property in Sheffield.  The project formed part of a complete house renovation and extension.  All materials were supplied by ProTec Render Supplies Ltd and installed by Mac Rendering Ltd. 

During works on the façade, all external elevations were rendered using Mapewall GRP one-coat render. The surface was then reinforced with Mapetherm Net – an alkali-resistant glass fibre mesh. This was followed with a base layer of Silancolor Base Coat Primer – a silicone resin-based paint featuring micro-granular quartz and selected charges. The surface was then finished with Silancolor Tonachino 1.5mm silicone-resin thin coat render; a fibre-reinforced, breathable and highly water-repellent textured finish.  Colour shade 8510 – an off-white tone – was chosen from the Mapei Colour Project range, for both the primer and top coat, to complement the property’s Anthracite Grey-toned roof and windows.

“We’ve been using Mapei renders for around 12 months now, on a number of local projects across South Yorkshire. Our skilled installation team find the products extremely easy to use and the quality to be of a high standard.

The quality of the products we install is of high importance to us as a business, knowing that our clients are getting exactly what they have requested - in this case, a full silicone render system; a system that should last 30 years with minimal maintenance. We look for reasonably priced, good quality and reliability in a render manufacturer’s products, along with technical assistance if needed and warranties/specifications if requested; so far, Mapei is ticking all the boxes,“ commented Chris McVann, Director of MAC Rendering Ltd.
