New Block Work Render System

Importance of Priming for Long-Lasting Render Systems

Priming is a crucial first step when applying any new block work render system, as it ensures the render adheres securely to the substrate. Licata’s primers are specifically designed to stabilise blockwork and enhance adhesion, providing a reliable base for the render system. This extra preparation helps prevent early cracking and ensures long-lasting performance, even in challenging conditions.

Using high-performance primers like the Licata Aggrapante LG Primer also improves the durability of the entire render system. These primers penetrate deeply into the substrate, helping to reduce moisture absorption and extend the life of the finish. They are suitable for use on most types of masonry and block surfaces.

Reinforcing Render Systems with Fibreglass Mesh

To ensure crack resistance and flexibility, incorporating fibreglass mesh into the premium basecoat is highly effective. Fibreglass mesh strengthens the system by distributing stress evenly across the surface, which helps prevent cracks caused by shifting or settling of the substrate.

Licata’s render systems are designed for durable, long-term performance, with reinforcement options that enhance their integrity. This step is particularly valuable when working with block walls, as it adds an extra layer of protection against wear and tear, making the system both resilient and cost effective.

Choosing the Best Basecoat for Blockwork Applications

Licata’s range of premium basecoats is specially designed to deliver exceptional adhesion and strength for new block work render systems. These basecoats are compatible with various substrates, ensuring seamless application and a durable foundation. The inclusion of a high-quality basecoat helps enhance crack resistance, making it a vital component for long-term system performance.

With excellent breathable properties, Licata’s basecoats allow moisture to escape from the walls, reducing the risk of trapped water and structural issues. These products integrate perfectly with thin coat renders, offering both flexibility and strength, ensuring a professional finish suitable for modern building requirements.

Transforming Facades with Coloured Render Options

Licata’s through coloured renders allow you to add an attractive and long-lasting finish to your property. With over 700 colours to choose from, you can match your design preferences while enjoying a finish that resists fading and chipping over time.

These thin coat renders are spray applied for precise application and smooth coverage. Whether you prefer a textured or smooth finish, Licata’s render systems offer versatile options that suit brick, blockwork, and masonry substrates.

Achieving Flexibility and Strength with Thin Coat Render Systems

Thin coat render systems from Licata are designed to provide maximum flexibility while maintaining structural integrity. These systems are ideal for new block work render systems, offering excellent protection against weather, moisture, and algae growth.

Licata’s silicone render solutions combine highly breathable properties with exceptional durability. Their lightweight nature and grain size options allow you to achieve a professional finish that enhances both the appearance and longevity of your project.
