Homes and walls in Waterlooville
Surveys in Waterlooville also cover the surrounding PO7 district and towns such as Havant and Portsmouth. Waterlooville sits around 16 miles from Southampton. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Exposure to wind-driven rain varies across Hampshire: sheltered town streets fare better than walls on high ground or facing the prevailing weather, and the render, beads and cill details are chosen with that in mind.
If you're re-rendering in Waterlooville, we'll show you what adding insulation under the silicone would cost at the same time.

Permissions in England
For a house in Waterlooville, external insulation or render is often permitted development if it looks similar to the existing walls; conservation areas, flats, commercial buildings and listed buildings need permission or consent, so we check your address first.
If the work covers more than half of a wall, or a quarter of the building's whole envelope, it counts as renovating a thermal element, with a target of about 0.30 W/m²K where feasible.
How is silicone render applied?
On masonry, the wall is prepared and any loose material removed. A base coat with glass-fibre mesh is applied over the whole wall to resist cracking, followed by a primer and the silicone finish, trowelled to its grain size. On EWI, the same base coat, primer and finish go over the insulation boards.

Silicone render in Waterlooville: questions
Can silicone render go over old render?
If the old render is sound and well bonded, often yes after cleaning and priming. Hollow or cracked areas are cut out and repaired first.
Does silicone render crack?
The mesh-reinforced base coat and the render's flexibility make cracking much less likely than with sand and cement, but structural movement in the wall can still show through.
How long does silicone render take to dry?
It's touch-dry within hours but needs dry weather above about 5°C for the first day or two to cure properly.
