In Scotland, the weather can be unforgiving. Driving rain, high winds, snow and freezing temperatures can take their toll on even the best-built houses, with exterior walls especially susceptible to the harsh elements. Cracks and other external damage caused by the weather can soon lead to water ingress, damp, mould and potentially serious structural issues.
The best way to protect your walls – and your home – is to invest in specialist exterior wall coatings. Designed to protect your property from rain, wind and sun, these coatings will help your home to weather the storms and stay in great condition for as long as possible.
The advanced wall coatings we use are specifically formulated to withstand extreme weather conditions. With Scotland particularly prone to heavy rain, snow, harsh sunlight and strong winds, investing in these specialist coatings will ensure your home is protected year-round.
Being exposed to the extremes of Scottish weather can have a real impact on external walls. Environmental damage can easily result in cracks, peeling and deterioration, potentially leading to significant maintenance issues over time.
Investing in exterior wall coatings will make your home more durable and work to prevent deterioration. This will help to keep your property in great condition, minimise your maintenance costs and give you peace of mind.
Our high-quality coatings have excellent waterproofing properties. Waterproofing walls around your home will prevent moisture from seeping into your property and causing structural damage or mould growth. Both of these issues can become extremely serious and, if left unresolved, can become very expensive to put right. This makes external wall waterproofing a great investment.
During the summer months, homes in Scotland are exposed to long hours of sunshine. Powerful UV rays can be extremely harmful to external walls. Over the years, they can cause paint to fade and outside surface materials to become weak and brittle, something that can increase the chances of water ingress, damp and mould. Using a specialist coating to protect your walls from UV rays is a great way to boost their longevity and protect your home.
Almost all materials expand, contract and move a little as they age. Changes in temperature and alterations in humidity can increase movement within your home, often leading to hairline cracks appearing on the outside of your property.
In order to prevent damage caused by movement, we use elastomeric coatings. Extremely flexible, they allow the render to expand and contract without damaging the surface. These coatings are tested in accordance with, and approved by, DAKKS and ISO 9001 standards.
