Rendering refers to the process of applying a coat of cement on the external walls of a property to make them smooth or textured as desired. The difference between rendering and plastering is that rendering involves the exterior walls while plastering involves the interior ones.

Rendering is designed to make your external walls more durable and water repellent. Lime used within the mixture enhances the breathability of your wall, preventing moisture from getting trapped and allowing it to escape from the surface. The waterproof benefits are some of the key benefits of rendering.
