Scratch Render
Scratch render is a relatively new process that originated from the continent around ten years ago. It is a coloured cement based render with a surface that looks similar to weathered stone when finished. Scratch render is applied in such a manner that the elevation of a house is made to look plaster flat unlike normal sand and cement render. The surface of the render is then ‘scratched’ with a nail float.
A big bonus of choosing a scratch render application for your home is that the colour is never damaged and can be power washed back to brand new after years of use.
Scratch Render has significant insulation and waterproof properties that you will not find in traditional renders. Apart from being very hardwearing we feel scratch render gives a superior quality finish and when properly applied looks extremely attractive, adding value to your home.
