External wall insulation

A warmer house, wrapped from the outside

External wall insulation (EWI) wraps your walls in insulation boards finished with a tough, through-coloured siloxane render, so the house stays warmer without losing any room inside. We use NSAI Agrément-certified systems and take care over the detailing at windows, doors and eaves. How EWI works

Siloxane render finish

Maintenance-free and self-cleaning

We finish our render systems in siloxane. Rain beads up and runs off the surface instead of soaking in, and it carries dirt away with it, so the walls keep themselves clean. There's no repainting, ever. It's maintenance-free.

  • Never needs painting
  • Self-cleaning in the rain
  • Resists algae and green staining
  • Mesh layer resists cracking

No insulation needed

Don't need insulation? The same render system (base coat, mesh and siloxane finish) can go straight onto your existing walls. It's the longest-lasting, lowest-maintenance render you can put on a house.

Breathable options for old buildings

Lime render and stone walls need to breathe, or damp gets trapped inside them. We use breathable siloxane finishes that let moisture out while keeping rain off, so they're safe on lime-rendered cottages and stone buildings.
