This project in Somerset involved rendering both new blockwork and existing brickwork to create a unified, modern look across an extended property. The homeowner wanted a fresh new look that tied the old and new sections together while complementing the darker stonework already in place, enhancing the property’s exterior aesthetic appeal and kerb appeal. This required a weather resistant, durable render system suitable for both solid brick and blockwork external walls, providing excellent protection against the elements typical of Somerset’s climate. The chosen monocouche render system offered a one coat, pre mixed solution that requires minimal maintenance, improving the thermal performance and energy efficiency of the home’s external walls while increasing the market value of the property.

The client’s goals were clear:

• Apply a fresh render system to bring consistency between the old building and new extensions
• Choose a contrasting colour that would highlight and complement the dark stone features
• Deliver a long-lasting, durable finish with minimal maintenance

To achieve the desired result, Webster SRS used Ecorend MR1 Monocouche Render, a high-quality through-coloured render designed for strength and a clean, uniform appearance.

• Product: Ecorend MR1 Monocouche Render
• Finish: Scraped
• Colour: Chalk White

This system provides a robust, breathable coating ideal for both new blockwork and older masonry, ensuring a seamless visual transition across different materials.

All floors, windows, soffits, and cladding were fully protected prior to application. The team began by applying primer and reinforcement mesh to ensure maximum adhesion and crack resistance.

Once the surface was prepared, the Ecorend MR1 monocouche render was applied evenly across all areas and then finished with a precise scraped texture for a professional, uniform appearance.

The completed project successfully tied together the property’s existing brickwork and newly built extensions. The chalk white finish provides a clean contrast against the darker stonework, transforming the entire exterior walls into a cohesive, contemporary design.

By choosing this high-quality render system, the property benefits from excellent weather resistance suitable for Somerset’s damp climate, enabling long-term protection of solid and older properties.
