Magherafelt, Londonderry
Silicone Render in Magherafelt
Breathable, self-cleaning silicone thin-coat render in a through-colour finish that never needs painting.
Silicone Render in Magherafelt is work we take on regularly, and the Londonderry housing stock is a big part of why.
Londonderry is characterised by Victorian terraces, harled cottages and exposed north-coast housing, with driving rain and salt on north-coast properties the recurring theme on the properties we survey.
Magherafelt sits in a part of the UK that gets wet with severe Atlantic exposure on the north coast — worth factoring into any render decision. The north coast around portstewart takes direct atlantic weather, and dash finishes substantially outperform smooth render there.
When silicone render is the right call. Choose silicone where you want a low-maintenance, breathable finish on a solid-wall or insulated property and you don't want to repaint every five to seven years.

FAQs
Silicone Render in Magherafelt
Can you render over existing render?
Sometimes, if the existing coat is completely sound and well-bonded. We hammer-test it first. Anything hollow has to come off, because covering failure just hides it.
Are you insured?
Yes — full public liability cover, and we can send the certificate before we start. We are happy to provide RAMS for commercial and contractor work.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, with teams across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. If we are not the right firm for your location we will tell you rather than waste your time.
How long does silicone render last?
A correctly installed silicone system carries a typical 25-year warranty and commonly performs well beyond that. Because the colour is integral rather than painted on, it ages by weathering evenly rather than by peeling.
Can silicone render be applied over old render?
Often yes, provided the existing render is sound, well-bonded and free of damp. We hammer-test and pull-test the substrate first — anything hollow or blown has to come off.
