			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are a myriad of different types of exterior wall coatings available today so which do you choose, which company are any good, and which one will do the job that you want it do do, on your house exterior?<span id="more-18227"></span></p>
<p>Exterior wall coatings come in various different guises and some products are available for DIY application, some are for industrial use only, and some types of exterior wall coverings are sold on a &#8220;supply and fit&#8221; basis from organisations such as <a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/">NEVER PAINT AGAIN.</a></p>
<p>Surely PAINT is &#8230;er&#8230;. Paint, and A coat of RENDER is, well, just a coat of render, just like people have used for years yes? Well, ..er&#8230;. actually no.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s more complicated than that, however most people aren&#8217;t really that bothered in reading a load of technical &#8220;guff&#8221; (is that a word?) so we&#8217;ve simplified the process, making sure YOU can get to know exactly what sort of external wall covering is right for your home!</p>
<h3><strong>Which one is best for you?</strong></h3>
<p>It goes without saying that only YOU, with some advice given by us, can decide what you want for the exterior of your house, after all its your choice, not the choice of a salesman!</p>
<p>Exterior wall coatings are designed for certain recommended applications, in certain climatic conditions, using certain tools and ancillary products and are best left to the experts!</p>
<h3><strong>Masonry paints</strong></h3>
<p>Paints are, by their very description, a<a title="read more about wall coverings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/exterior-wall-coverings/"> wall covering</a>, but it is worth noting before you part with your cash, that paint is merely coloured water and will not provide any weathering protection, damp proofing or longevity apart from up to a year to 18 months, by which time it has to be done again, meaning more money to shell out.</p>
<p>The alternative is to have a professionally applied exterior wall coating, such as Andura tex gard classic.</p>
<h3><strong>Thermal render</strong></h3>
<p>External thermal rendering, or External Wall insulation systems (EWIS) are thermally insulated, protective, decorative exterior wall coating systems which provide an excellent barrier against heat loss in the home.</p>
<p>So who benefits from having NEVER PAINT AGAIN external thermal render fitted to their house?  Having one of our heat loss preventing render coatings brings many benefits to the home owner as not only will the house be in top condition, it will look great too, AND your heating bills will drop dramatically as a result!</p>
<h3><strong>What is thermal render?</strong></h3>
<p>Our version of thermal external render is a coloured render, which is a high performance synthetic render based exterior wall coating system, manufactured in Belgium by<strong> Cantillana. </strong>It is applied by the plastering division of  Never Paint Again. This special render is SIMILAR to products such as K-rend and Weber render products. It is also known as “Through render”, “monocap” and “monocouche”.</p>
<h3><strong>Monocouche Render systems</strong></h3>
<p>GRC coloured render is a high performance coloured render based exterior wall coating system, manufactured in Belgium by<strong> Cantillana,</strong> and applied by the plastering division of  Never Paint Again. This special render is SIMILAR to products such as K-rend and Weber render products. It is also known as “Through render”, “monocap” and “monocouche”.</p>
<p><strong>Never Paint Again Coloured render:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Will not crack or fall off.</li>
<li>Will not fade and keeps a strong natural colour for years.</li>
<li>Insulates the house, cutting heating bills.</li>
<li>SAVES YOU MONEY on not having to have any external decoration for at least 15 years.</li>
<li>Can be applied to almost any house or commercial building.</li>
<li><a title="free survey" href="../website-enquiry/" target="_blank">FREE Exterior wall survey </a>and appraisal, no obligation.</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>Clear coatings for brick and stone.</strong></h3>
<p>A siloxane based <a title="read more about clear coat here. " href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/npa-clearshield-2-cure-penetrating-damp/">wall coating</a> with added water dispersing agents and stops penetrating damp in its tracks. Includes a full wall clean and repair before application. Cannot be applied during rainy weather. The coating soaks deep into your exterior walls, enough in fact, to make them literally  invisible as the coating DOES NOT LEAVE A SHEEN OR A SHINE ON THE WALLS, AND DOES NOT ALTER THE LOOK OF YOUR HOME! This coating is our best value for money yet.</p>
<h3><strong>Textured Exterior Wall Coatings by Andura<br />
</strong></h3>
<p><em>This is of course our field of work so forgive me for being slightly biased. <img src="../wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" /></em></p>
<p>The top quality BBA approved wall coating we use differ from normal painters insofar as yes, we survey the house properly, note areas of repair required etc etc, cost the job exactly instead of a rough guess, and we only use the best paints and coatings money can buy.</p>
<p>Why? because after we do the exterior <a title="exterior wall coatings" href="../category/case-studies/" target="_blank">wall coating work on a house</a>, the paint finish outside will not need to be attended to for at least 15 years, and in some cases 20 years. How?</p>
<p><strong>Our exterior wall coatings are far superior to masonry paint </strong>because they last longer, do not need maintenance, they dont fade, they dont crack, they protect the wall underneath, and crucially, they also stop penetrating damp!</p>
<p><strong>All this and more, with a 15 year warranty!</strong></p>
<p>So as you can see, weighing up the different options, having your home painted ONCE in 20 years with a NEVER PAINT AGAIN <a title="wall coating" href="../wall-coatings/" target="_blank">Wall coating</a>, regardless of the fact that initially it costs a bit more, is far less hassle and far less cost overall, than having someone do it each year or every other year. In addition, having a spray applied wall coating brings many benefits to both the house itself, and its occupants.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pebbledash rendering and replacement is something that can be carried out with the minimum of fuss by the never paint again exterior wall coatings installation teams across the UK.<span id="more-17969"></span></p>
<p>Pebble dash is not to everyone&#8217;s taste and like it or loath it, it doesn&#8217;t last for ever and at some time, if your home is covered in pebbledash, it is going to need to be re-done, but do you REALLY WANT that awful stuff covering your home?</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re not too sure, please can we have 5 minutes of your time to read this and then see what you think&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<h3><strong>What&#8217;s wrong with pebbledash?</strong></h3>
<p>Pebbledash, as an exterior wall coating, only has a finite lifespan so when the outside walls of your house look tired, with missing stones, cracks, hollow render and bald areas of pebbles, now is the time to consider getting it spruced up perhaps?</p>
<p>Pebbledash was designed to cover up poor quality brickwork and the problem is that over time, the stones drop out (check your path or driveway for proof) and then the water resistant nature of the pebbles is lost and the render behind starts to soak up water. As a dashed wall is not flexible, the water, once inside the house, freezes during cold weather and pushes the dash off the wall, causing even bigger problems.</p>
<h3><strong>What can be done with pebble dash?</strong></h3>
<p>Well for a start, if you have ever tried to paint over pebbledash, you will know what a thankless and awful task this is, in fact I have yet to see a house, in all my years as a surveyor, that looks good after a lick of paint over the pebbledash, in fact most of them look diabolical! Repairs to pebbledash NEVER match in, and the replacement of the dash can cause more problems than it cures.</p>
<p><strong>The stones which fall off the wall, cannot be replaced.</strong></p>
<p>This is also evident where a pebbledashed house has had previous repairs or alterations, the 2 areas of wall NEVER match up and in some cases, it looks awful! <a title="Mis matched pebbledash" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/A-pebbledashed-house-before-a-wall-coating.jpg" target="_blank"><em>(see an example of this)</em></a></p>
<h3><strong>Builders who remove and replace pebbledash</strong></h3>
<p><strong>So along comes sub contractors &#8220;Dodgy Darren P&#8221; and &#8220;Mad Mike D&#8221;, in their beaten up van, for the &#8220;cash in hand &#8220;job they promised you with their hard-sell at the doorstep! </strong></p>
<p><strong>Now is the time to panic</strong>!</p>
<p>There are two ways a &#8220;builder&#8221; deals with old pebbledash, both horrendously bad for your house.</p>
<h3><em><strong>The first is FORCED REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT.</strong></em></h3>
<p>If the pebbledash is firmly stuck to the wall, when a builder forcibly removes it, <strong>his tools WILL rip out the mortar joints</strong> and the faces of the brick beneath, causing potential <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>structural damage</strong></span> to your house which if the local building inspector turns up, you will have some explaining to do.</p>
<p>This also means that he has a duty to inform your home insurance company of the works, who, after a further inspection, may then invalidate your home insurance</p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>I am not kidding or trying to &#8220;sell&#8221; you our system, this really does happen and we have some quite scary photos of people doing it to prove it.</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<h3><em><strong>The 2nd method is applying MORE pebbledash over the old stuff!</strong></em></h3>
<p>UH-OH! <img src='http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>If your builder does this, they will almost<strong> certainly render over the top of cracks</strong>, locking damp and other problems in, plus adding more pebbledash to window reveals, often means that you can never ever open your windows properly again.</p>
<p>This increases the STRUCTURAL LOAD on your wall, something your house was not designed for, and yes, in some cases, this has causes walls to have major cracks, and in the &#8220;best case scenario&#8221;, if you can call it that, the old pebbledash wall will &#8220;reject&#8221; the new dash, which will eventually AND LITERALLY fall off in chunks. This is based on real life experience.</p>
<h3><strong>What is the best solution for pebbledash painting?</strong></h3>
<p>By far, a s<a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/">pray applied exterior wall coating</a> is your best bet for pebbledash and the service provided by NPA, includes a full repair and surface renewal, so that when we finish, your home will have a uniform texture all over and will be complemented by<a title="view the colour chart" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/paint-and-wall-coating-colours/"> a great colour too!</a></p>
<p>Exterior house coatings, unlike paints, are suitable for all types of wall surfaces, such as pebbledash, brick, render and stucco.</p>
<p><strong>The Never paint again team can tell you how these coatings can benefit your house, long and short term.</strong></p>
<p>Original and genuine <a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="../wall-coatings/"><strong>Exterior wall coatings</strong></a> from the REAL never paint again are suitable for all wall types and our coating service cures a whole host of external wall defects.</p>
<p>Typical jobs we do to the exterior wall surfaces of homes include replacing tyrolean, render or pebbledash, filling and fixing cracked walls, replacing loose or missing brick work pointing mortar joints and damp proofing walls, including removal of moss, mould and algae.</p>
<p>Our wall coatings for pebbledash come with a<strong> 15 year insurance backed guarantee</strong> which means that your home will not attract green mould, nor will it fade, peel or crack, for up to 20 years!</p>
<h3><strong>Give your house a whole new look!</strong></h3>
<p><strong>If you were only considering having your home re-dashed, I think you would be surprised to hear that in most cases IT COSTS THE SAME AS HAVING IT REPAIRED AND SPRAY PAINTED WITH ONE OF OUR <a title="Pebbledash painting becomes a thing of the past with NPA coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/" target="_blank">LONG LIFE EXTERIOR WALL COATINGS!</a></strong></p>

<h3>Damp Proofing homes across Windsor</h3>
<p>Damp proofing is a term used within the construction industry and describes a process which is designed to make the base walls of your home water-proof preventing damp as well as moisture content transferring through wall membrane to your interior spaces. Without treatment, damp will be able to spread out and consequently lead to your foundation wall structure and the neighboring room decoration rotting quite often resulting in problematic structural damage.</p>
<p>Following treatment, an effective (and cost effective) way to indefinitely avoid the difficulties of damp is to use a GUARANTEED external wall coating offered by Never Paint Again.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the run up to February the 14th 2012 why not help set the romantic scene at home by spreading the &#8220;luuurve&#8221; towards your home and having the exterior walls painted with a long life weatherproof paint?<span id="more-17653"></span></p>
<p>No, hold on, bear with me on this one!</p>
<p>I will explain. It&#8217;s about this time of year, we&#8217;ve finished the &#8220;looking back&#8221; phase (just after new year) and now most of us look forward to what 2012 will bring.</p>
<p>Ok, so the economy isn&#8217;t in good shape, on the surface for many, things dont look so fab, but on a more practical level, we all live in houses and pretty soon you will be thinking about having to get the exterior painted YET AGAIN, as it doesn&#8217;t look so good.</p>
<p><strong>February 14th:</strong> Imagine you and your partner, glass of wine in hand, on the patio, framed by your house in the background with grubby, cracked walls and peeling paint? Doesn&#8217;t really set the scene very well does it?</p>
<h3><strong>Your house needs your love. ♥<br />
</strong></h3>
<p>Just like humans, houses need love and attention too.</p>
<p>Our house is by far our most important possession, and its not only somewhere where we can keep our &#8220;stuff&#8221;, its also the scene for family life, for couples to share, and something we aspire to be proud of.</p>
<p>It is therefore obvious that if we <span style="text-decoration: underline;">dont look after it,</span> we will suffer. Whether that is in the form of damp and a feeling of gloom in the house, to our level of prestige and being able to look at the house and say &#8220;that&#8217;s my place!&#8221;</p>
<p>If you are trying to SELL this year, maybe even to make a new start, or for a growing family, if the house has defects and a shabby appearance, you will struggle to find a buyer; houses aren&#8217;t exactly flying off the shelves at present.</p>
<p>If you show your house some love, it will look after you in many ways.</p>
<h3><strong>Give your house a warm &#8220;cuddle&#8221;, with our Exterior wall coatings!</strong></h3>
<p>To avoid this article sounding stupid, let me explain.</p>
<p>Your house needs as much care and attention as your partner, because if you dont give your partner care, love and attention, they may in the end let you down. That is the same for your house. If you dont care for your house, if you dont look after your house, it is going to let you down, big time.</p>
<p>If cracks are evident on the exterior wall surface, they are going to get worse, ending with damp coming into the house, the bricks and mortar version of crying in fact!</p>
<p>If your walls inside are cold or damp to the touch, this is a warning sign that something is wrong, especially if the walls are still cold when the heating is switched on. If your partner is cold, what do you do? You offer them a nice warm coat and/or give them a cuddle!</p>
<p>If your other half is getting wet and soaked through in the rain, what do you do? You make sure they are protected from the wet weather with a nice warm coat and maybe a hat, and maybe even an umbrella.</p>
<h3><strong>Let&#8217;s translate that thought to your house</strong></h3>
<p>If the wind and the rain and howling at your house, it needs<strong> protection</strong> and the paint that some dodgy decorator from down the pub splashed on last year has all come off and is not protecting the house in any way.</p>
<p>Your house is lacking love and may suffer from flaky paint, loose pointing around bricks, rotten fascia boards, loose windows, oh what a horror story!</p>
<p>Your home can look (possibly) as romantic as the one in the picture, although we do offer a full <a title="What colour would you like?" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/paint-and-wall-coating-colours/" target="_blank"><strong>range of colours</strong> </a>to suit every mood!</p>
<h3><strong>So what&#8217;s the answer?</strong></h3>
<p>Give your home the long term benefits of a NEVER PAINT AGAIN exterior wall coating which is like a nice warm coat, and a cuddle and a kiss thrown in too!</p>
<p>Our weatherproof <a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/"><strong>exterior wall coatings</strong> </a>will cure all damp and any cold walls you have, meaning the house will be nice and cosy, all ready for Valentines day. The fun doesn&#8217;t stop there though as our exterior wall coatings, in place of normal paint, carry on keeping your home warm and dry for up to 20 years without the need to repaint!</p>
<p>You too can benefit from the UK&#8217;s <strong>best quality</strong> exterior wall covering, at a<strong> fraction</strong> of this summers standard retail price, when we are much busier than we are in January and February.</p>
<p><strong>Our super tough exterior wall coatings, on your home, can really spread the love this Valentines day and to find out more, &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..give one of our hopelessly romantic call centre agents a ring (!) on 0800 970 4928 and have a happy ending this Valentines day.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Lots of love from the Never Paint Again Team. <img src='http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The UK isn&#8217;t famed for its good weather, and the outsides of our houses take a right hammering from the cold, wind and rain each year, so what is the best wall covering to withstand this and to keep damp at bay?<span id="more-17812"></span></p>
<p>There are many different external wall surfaces on the various different types of British houses and some are only temporary, lasting up to 2 years maximum, like masonry paint, and some wall coverings last a lot longer and provide better value for money for a slightly higher short term investment.</p>
<h3><strong>So which wall coverings are truly weather resistant?</strong></h3>
<p>Well, for a start <strong>PAINT</strong>, the type you buy down at B &amp; Q or the sort your decorator uses, is a wall covering which is essentially only decorative and provides very little protection at all. OK, a bare rendered wall will get a tiny bit of protection if painted, but that is very much short term and in fact masonry paint will start to break down after only the first winter.</p>
<p><em><strong>Paint will NOT protect your home against bad weather.</strong></em></p>
<p><strong>Pebbledash</strong>, is another popular external wall covering which were developed at the first part of the previous century, essentially to cover up poor quality brickwork. The older type of pebbledash does provide<em> some basic long term weather protection</em>, however over time, the stones drop out, leaving the bare render behind.</p>
<p>This unprotected external wall surface is then able to absorb water from rain, which then freezes and cracking occurs. Renewal is often expensive, and cheaper quality flint chips are often used, making the covering into <strong>spar dash.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Tyrolean and rough cast</strong> walls are also prone to attack from the elements and often crack and allow damp into the house. Many of these coatings also dont really look very nice and therefore if you are simply looking for long term <a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/"><strong>paint solutions</strong> </a>for your house, something more long lasting may be best.</p>
<p><strong>Unpainted brick or stone</strong> is another exterior wall surface which is prone to attack from the UK weather and we have a couple of solution for your walls, depending on whether you want the brick (etc) to remain <a title="Read more about ClearCoat which damp proofs and weatherproofs the wall without altering the look" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/npa-clearshield-2-cure-penetrating-damp/"><strong>unpainted but to have weather protection</strong></a>, OR we can apply a <a title="Read more about coloured exterior wall coverings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/exterior-textured-wall-coatings/"><strong>coloured wall coating,</strong></a> giving maximum protection, with the minimum of fuss.</p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>In general, most normal exterior wall coverings are purely decorative.</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<h3><strong>Never Paint Again Waterproof wall coatings.</strong></h3>
<p>The genuine never paint again range of <a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/"><strong>exterior wall coatings</strong></a> are by far the best value for money way to completely weatherproof your home, whilst also providing an attractive, durable and waterproof finish, one which lasts for up to 20 years!</p>
<p>Our wall coatings come in various guises and can be <strong><a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/">SPRAY APPLIED </a></strong>or <strong><a title="Trowel applied render based wall coatings info here" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/grc-coloured-rendering/">TROWEL APPLIED</a></strong>, meaning that whatever type of house you own, there will be a weatherproof wall coating which will not only suit the style of your home, but will also suit your budget too!</p>
<p>Our wall coatings can be applied to almost any external wall surface and they will not fade, nor crack, chip or peel, AND (yes, there&#8217;s more!), <strong>they cure damp too!</strong></p>
<h3><strong>Guaranteed for 15 years.</strong></h3>
<p>In a world where not all home improvement companies are true to their word, our contractors directly offer you <strong>THREE guarantees</strong> for absolute peace of mind.</p>
<p>1) The materials we use come with a <strong>factory warrant</strong>y. 2) Our <strong>contractors</strong> issue their own warranty which also covers defects and workmanship. 3) Your guarantee is also covered by an <strong>insurance policy</strong> meaning that all monies paid are protected and in the unlikely event of a claim, this will be covered in full.</p>
<p>So the best weather resistant coating for your house would be, <a title="Don't take our word for it, see what previous clients had to say!" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/category/testimonials/" target="_blank">in our customers opinion</a>, one of the original and only genuine NEVER PAINT AGAIN exterior wall coatings.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cavity wall insulation is defined as the injection of an insulating material (usually recycled cardboard, rockwool or polystyrene balls) which fill the cavity (the space between the inner and outer walls) of a house and provide a thermal barrier.<span id="more-17766"></span></p>
<p>There are tremendous benefits to this system, although there are critics of it too and we look at both sides of the argument here and we suggest viable alternatives to having cavity wall insulation.</p>
<p>In general cavity wall insulation is fitted for a reason; i.e. to cure the symptoms of cold walls and wind chill. This also has a positive effect on lowering heating bills, however there are some drawbacks too, AND there are alternative ways to insulate your home.</p>
<p><strong>The three main types of UK Cavity wall insulation.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Rockwool</strong></p>
<p>1. A popular and widely used insulation product is made from mineral wool insulation, and is known as <strong>Rockwool</strong> and is made from, as it suggests, old wool.</p>
<p>2. <strong>Polystyrene balls.</strong> These tiny balls are injected into holes in the wall with a special pump, usually mounted within the teams lorry. (NOTE, NEVER PAINT AGAIN does NOT offer this system)</p>
<p>3. <strong>Insulating foam</strong>. This is the less commonly used option and is often made from either polyurethane or formaldehyde foam, which must comply with BS:5618  and BS5617</p>
<h3><strong>Good or bad?</strong></h3>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>On the face of it, insulating a cavity wall seems a good idea, however not everyone agrees&#8230;.</strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p>Houses with cavity walls were built to keep out rain driven by the wind, however if the cavity, the gap between each &#8220;leaf&#8221; of the walls, is filled, there is, <em>some would say</em>, a risk that moisture will then have a way of bridging the cavity and entering the house.</p>
<p><em><strong>This can cause DAMP where previously it did not exist.</strong></em></p>
<p>Another problem can be the &#8220;wall ties&#8221;, the metal rods inside the cavity which help to hold each side the wall together; they can rust when cavity wall insulation is injected, and in the worst case, can cause the outer leaf to fail and come tumbling down into the street or worse.</p>
<p><em><strong>Of course the cavity wall industry denies this.</strong></em></p>
<p>And from our viewpoint, it also leaves scar marks across the wall where the team have installed the insulation, meaning that you now have to have the exterior of the house painted <a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/"><strong>with a thick durable paint</strong> </a>to hide the blemishes!</p>
<p><strong>How is suitability for cavity wall installation ascertained?</strong></p>
<p>An authorised contractor will survey the house to determine whether cavity wall insulation is suitable and would commonly look at the following factors. The exposure of the walls of the house to driving rain, the condition of the masonry joints or &#8220;pointing&#8221; of the masonry outer leaf, the type of insulation material required and finally, the masonry material itself is considered.</p>
<h3><strong>Alternatives to cavity wall insulation.</strong></h3>
<p>If filling the cavity walls of your home is not something you feel you would benefit from, then there are <a title="Next stage of insulation" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/external-insulated-render-wall-insulation/">other alternatives available,</a> from NEVER PAINT AGAIN.</p>
<h3><strong>Exterior spray applied wall coatings</strong></h3>
<p>These value for money <a title="click here to read more about exterior textured wall coatings" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/wall-coatings/"><strong>external wall coatings</strong></a> help in reducing wind chill and curing damp, all of which can make a house very cold if not treated. Not only does our external wall covering system cure wind chill and cold walls, it also stops damp, and does NOT need repainting for up to 20 years!</p>

<h3><strong>Exterior thermal render</strong></h3>
<p>This system is an addition to our already popular coloured render and has thermal insulating mesh built into the walls before application of the final aesthetic coat of render. This amazing system has excellent thermal properties and is suitable for most houses.</p>
<h3><strong>Solid wall insulation</strong></h3>
<p><a title="read more about this system" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/insulation-for-outside-walls/">Solid wall insulation</a> obviously does not apply for cavity walls and therefore is not suitable, but if your home was built before 1920, chances are it will <span style="text-decoration: underline;">not have a cavity</span> so that form of thermal insulation inst any good, but the exterior retro fitted insulation from NEVER PAINT AGAIN is by the far the best way to insulate a house without cavity walls.</p>
<p>External wall insulation is a layer of material, sometimes boards or sometimes insulated render, applied to the external walls of the house.</p>
<p>This can also take the form of cladding, or brick slips, insulated boards which, when fitted to the house, makes it look like the property has a brand new brick wall.<a title="Click here and this will take you to the email contact page" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/website-enquiry/"> <strong> Contact us for QUOTE.</strong></a></p>
<h3><strong>So what&#8217;s the answer?</strong></h3>
<p>So as you can see <strong>cavity wall insulation</strong> has its pro&#8217;s and cons but overall, if done correctly, big savings can be had on heating, and in some areas of the UK insulation GRANTS and other financial help is also available.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>It is worth remembering that GRANTS paid to homeowners for cavity wall insulation are paid for BY TAKING HIGHER TAXES off everyone!!</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>However, cavity wall insulation can actually cause more problems than it can cure, but if you choose one of our exterior wall coatings, insulation or render systems, you will have the same benefits and MUCH more! This also includes the fact that we guarantee your house will look amazing, usually in only a few days, and you will get all the thermal benefits of installed cavity walls insulation and much more besides.</p>
<p>If you would like to discuss either having your <strong>cavity walls</strong> insulated with one of our <a title="GRC through render" href="http://www.neverpaintagain.co.uk/grc-coloured-rendering/">COLOURED THERMAL RENDER</a> systems, OR our SPRAY APPLIED WALL COATING SYSTEMS, then email us today, or call free.</p>
