Silicone Exterior Wall Coating in Bournemouth
Innovative Property Transformation by Veramut Ltd
Every home eventually needs a little care on the outside. Cracks start to appear, and the render begins to lose its charm.
The property exterior should protect the building and make it a pleasure to come home to.
In this case, our clients wanted to breathe new life into their coastal property, which had started to show signs of ageing. The old render was cracked, faded, and no longer doing its job.
Based on the clients' goals and property location, we suggested silicone external wall coating, a high-performance finish designed to refresh the look and shield the property from the elements.
Over the course of two weeks, we completely transformed the home’s appearance using a spray-applied grey silicone coating that now gives it a sleek, modern look while offering exceptional weather protection.

1. Silicone Exterior Wall Coating in Bournemouth. Project Overview.
Location: Bournemouth, Dorset
Duration: 2 weeks
Client Goals: Improve the property’s kerb appeal, remove cracked and discoloured render, and apply a long-lasting silicone external wall coating that offers both insulation and visual appeal.
Material: Silicone Spray Render, colour: grey
2. The Challenge
The existing render had reached the end of its life. It showed cracks, uneven surfaces, and patches of discolouration where water had penetrated over time. These issues not only affected the property’s appearance but also risked trapping moisture beneath the surface, leading to further deterioration.
Our task was to remove the damaged render and restore the façade within the agreed timeframes, all while ensuring minimal disruption to the client’s daily life. Because of the property’s coastal location, we also needed a finish that would resist salt, moisture, and temperature changes without cracking or fading.
Traditional cement-based renders wouldn’t have provided the flexibility or long-term protection required. A silicone external wall coating was the best solution, combining strength, breathability, and weather resistance in one seamless system.
For coastal properties such as those in Bournemouth, this durability is invaluable. The salty air and frequent moisture can quickly degrade conventional finishes, but silicone coatings are designed to handle exactly those conditions. The result is a finish that not only looks fantastic but also provides lasting protection.
3. The Solution.
Following a detailed survey, we recommended a complete upgrade using a grey silicone spray-applied wall coating. Silicone coatings are one of the most advanced exterior systems available today, providing superior flexibility and a smooth, modern appearance. They combine aesthetics and performance like few other systems can.
They’re ideal for both contemporary homes and older properties in need of an upgrade.
The client chose a light grey finish, which not only suited the coastal setting but also gave the property a subtle, refined look. This shade has become a favourite for modern homes because it complements both traditional and contemporary designs beautifully.
Why Silicone External Wall Coating Was the Perfect Choice
Crack Resistance
Its flexibility allows the coating to move naturally with the building, preventing cracks from forming.
Weather Protection
The hydrophobic surface repels rain and dirt, perfect for coastal climates.
Breathability
Moisture can escape from the inside walls, preventing damp problems.
UV Stability
The colour won’t fade or discolour, even under strong sunlight.
Low Maintenance
The self-cleaning properties mean the surface stays bright with minimal effort.
The spray-application method we used ensured a consistent finish, without trowel marks or uneven textures, resulting in a flawless modern façade that will last for decades.
4. The Renovation Process.
Delivering a durable, high-quality finish starts with solid preparation. Our team followed a structured approach to make sure every stage was handled efficiently and precisely.
Removing the Old Render
To start with, we carefully removed the old, cracked render. This step is essential because new coatings adhere best to a sound, clean substrate. Removing the existing render also allowed us to inspect the wall beneath for any damage. We repaired minor imperfections and ensured the surface was completely solid before moving on.
Cleaning the Existing Walls
Next, we cleaned the walls to remove dirt, algae, and any loose material from the old surface. Proper cleaning is crucial for good adhesion and a smooth finish. Using specialist cleaning equipment, we stripped away years of build-up and created a stable base for the work ahead.
Applying the Silicone Exterior Wall Coating
Once the insulation was in place, we applied silicone spray coating. The spray technique provides a beautifully even texture and perfect colour consistency across the entire surface. Our experienced team worked methodically around the property to ensure every section was covered evenly and seamlessly.
The coating bonded securely to the base layer, creating a robust, breathable shield that protects against Bournemouth’s coastal weather. The soft grey tone gave the property an instant facelift, modern, elegant, and easy to maintain.
5. The Outcome.
When the project was complete, the transformation was immediate. The home went from looking tired and dated to having a clean, modern exterior that complemented its surroundings. The silicone exterior wall coating not only enhanced the property’s appearance but also significantly improved its weather resistance and thermal efficiency.
The homeowners were thrilled with the result, noting how much brighter and more welcoming their home looked. They also appreciated that the surface is now low-maintenance. Thanks to the silicone’s self-cleaning qualities, the rain naturally washes away any dust or dirt, keeping the walls looking fresh year-round.
The new insulation layer made a noticeable difference inside, too. The property is warmer in cooler weather and more comfortable overall. Most importantly, the project was finished on time and within budget, with every detail completed to our usual high standard.
