Finally, spring has sprung!

As the weather warms up and the days get longer, the plants and trees blossom into life.

This might make you wonder how your house will fare when it comes to protecting the exterior from increased water exposure (e.g., April showers) and biological growth.

Investing in a quality render is a great starting point.

Read on to find out what the best render is for spring!

Before we outline the best render for spring, let’s talk a bit about the ideal time of year to apply render.

The best time of year to apply render is undoubtedly in the spring and summer months. This is for several reasons:

  • Longer days, so more daylight hours.
  • Warmer weather means less harsh working conditions.
  • Render dries quicker in warmer weather.
  • Fresh render will protect your home from algae build up that often happens in summer months due to increased water exposure and plant growth.

While render application usually takes place in the spring and summer months, it is still possible to apply it in the colder months. You can read more about our top tips for applying render in the winter here.

Now that we know spring is a great time to apply render, let’s find out the best render for spring.

So, what is the best render for applying in spring?

The answer to this is an algae resistant silicone-based render, such as the EWI-076 Premium Bio. Let’s find out more about premium bio, and why it is the best product for applying to your walls in spring!

Premium Bio is the most progressive silicone-based render available in EWI Store. This is because it has been designed specifically to combat algae formation on the surface of the substrate.

Silicone is the active ingredient in premium bio render, meaning it possesses certain characteristics that make it a highly advanced render solution. These unique characteristics include:

  • Water-resistance
  • Flexibility
  • Breathability
  • Impact resistance
  • Colour vibrancy and thousands of colour choices

These properties make the premium bio uniquely resistant to algae and biological growth by actively breaking them down on the render surface.

Therefore, premium bio is ideal for use in areas with high levels of vegetation and rainfall. When applied to external walls, as a render only system, it provides excellent coverage from the elements and from being subject to algae build up.

Premium Bio is simple to apply.

It comes in a ready-to-use bucket that doesn’t require water. Simply mix and apply to a primed substrate using a plastic trowel! Find out more about how to apply Premium Bio here.

An incredible way to enhance the anti-fungal properties of this render is to prime the substrate with fungicidal wash. This adds another layer of protection and keeps your rendered walls looking fresher for longer!

So, there you have it, the best render for spring!
