Coloured Render vs Painted Render

At Rok Rendering we have been providing quality rendering services for our clients over three generations. When it comes to rendering your home you usually get the render painted as the final finish, however with new render products on the market there is an option to colour render your home. Colour rendering is a second coat of render applied onto your first coat of render that takes the place of painting.


A lot of our customers do a little bit of research online and after seeing the benefits promptly ask for the colour finish looks. Coloured render is a finish coat render that has the colour inside the render its self. If you decide to pick a colour render finish on your home you will no longer need to paint. A lot of people who decide to go down the colour render path have already got their render painted but years down the track have regreted and decided to get a colour finish. Colour render can be applied over painted renders but a few extra steps will need to be taken so the render sticks to the existing substrate

Colour render just like paint must be applied onto a initial base coat render. You cannot just apply coloured render straight onto your brick wall as it will not stick, won't be straight and is not recommended by any render material supplier
