Coloured Rendering Transformation in Bournemouth
Coastal Elegance Restored with Silicone Rendering
Wind, rain, and salt air all contribute to the slow deterioration of coastal property exteriors. Over time, even the most charming home can start to look worn and weary. But what if you could completely transform your home’s appearance and protect it from coastal weather at the same time?
That’s exactly what we achieved with this stunning home in Dorset. At Veramut Ltd, we specialise in coloured rendering, a modern solution that offers high performance, curb appeal, and longevity. Today we are going back to spring 2023, when we brought this Bournemouth property to life using peach-toned silicone spray render, delivering a sleek, breathable finish built to last.
Here’s how we made it happen.
1. Coloured Rendering Transformation in Bournemouth - Project Overview.
Location: Bournemouth, Dorset
Project Overview. Silicone spray render, peach tone (1 layer)
Duration: 2 weeks
Client Goals: remove deteriorated, cracked pebble dash render, improve the building’s aesthetic with a modern, smooth finish, and increase resistance to damp and weather exposure common in coastal homes.
The project shows how coloured rendering can do more than refresh a building’s look. It can improve performance and reduce maintenance needs, all in just a few weeks.
2. The Challenge.
The homeowners had lived with the original pebble dash exterior for many years. But over time, it had developed cracks, faded patches, and uneven textures. These defects weren’t just cosmetic. Cracked render allows water to seep in, raising the risk of internal damp, a real issue for properties located near the sea, where moisture levels are consistently high.
Our clients wanted a long-lasting solution that looked smart and contemporary without compromising on durability. It needed to be easy to maintain, flexible enough to withstand building movement, improve damp protection, and ideally resistant to future cracking or staining.
3. The Solution.
After a detailed site assessment, we recommended a silicone-based coloured rendering system, finished in a soft peach hue to suit the home’s character. Silicone render is one of the most advanced and practical options available today, especially for buildings exposed to coastal climates.
It is breathable, water-repellent, and resistant to algae and dirt. It allows moisture to escape from inside the structure while repelling water from the outside. That means reduced risk of damp, fewer maintenance concerns, and a consistently clean finish for years to come.
Choosing a peach tone gave the home a warm, inviting look, reflecting light beautifully without being overpowering. The finish is bright, modern, and highly durable. Exterior renovation that the homeowner had hoped for.
4. The Renovation Process.
At Veramut Ltd, we take pride in delivering rendering services that are both thorough and refined. This Bournemouth project followed a four-step transformation process, combining precision with long-term performance.
Surface Prep
We started with cleaning the entire facade. We removed dirt, moss, and any remnants of the old finish. This step is always the first and essential for creating the best possible surface for render adhesion. It also gave us the chance to evaluate the condition of the walls.
Removing the Cracked Pebble Dash
We then carefully stripped the existing pebble dash render, which had cracked and weathered significantly over the years.
Fibreglass-Reinforced Base Coat Application
To prepare the surface for final rendering, we applied a fibreglass mesh-reinforced base coat. This added layer provides strength and flexibility, reducing the risk of future cracking caused by minor structural movements or shifting temperatures. It also acts as a secure bonding surface for the topcoat.
Silicone Coloured Render Application
Finally, we applied one consistent layer of silicone coloured rendering using a spray system. This ensured a smooth, even finish with excellent texture consistency. The spray technique also allowed us to work efficiently, covering the entire facade evenly while keeping disruption to a minimum.
This peach-toned finish now forms a breathable, weather-resistant barrier around the property, protecting it from Bournemouth’s coastal elements while looking fantastic from every angle.
Looking at the before and after images, the transformation speaks for itself.
Before, the property looked tired and dull, with a mismatched colour scheme, red boundary wall, and stained pebble dash. Visible cracks made the facade appear neglected and outdated.
After the home is now polished and professional, with smooth walls coated in a soft, peach coloured render, the lower wall has been integrated seamlessly into the new finish, and the overall look is one of clean modernity.
5. Coloured Rendering Transformation in Bournemouth. Summary.
This Bournemouth project demonstrates exactly why coloured rendering is gaining popularity among homeowners looking to future-proof their properties.
The combination of a silicone-based render system, fibreglass mesh reinforcement, and professional spray application resulted in a facade that’s durable, low maintenance, weatherproof, visually appealing, breathable and flexible.
In just two weeks, we were able to strip away years of wear and give the home a brand-new lease on life, with protection that will last for decades.
