Q. Why are wall coatings better than masonry paint?
A. Conventional paints degrade and fade in sunlight, they crack and flake because of constant expansion and contraction, they become discoloured with mould and algae growth, and they peel from airborne pollution and acid rain that break the bond with the brick or stonework.
Coatec Systems provides a permanent solution to all these problems with looks that last over ten times longer than conventional masonry paints.
Q. When is the best time to apply wall coatings?
A. The Smooth Coating is waterproof 20 minutes after application, and the Textured Coating is touch dry in less than two hours, so even with our changeable weather, Coatec Systems’s exterior coatings can be applied at any time of the year.
Q. Can I keep the traditional appearance of my house?
A. There is a wide range of popular and complimentary colours to choose from, in both the smooth and textured finish.
However, if someone is looking for something more individual, there is a bespoke Colour Matching service. And for those people who wish to protect and retain the natural beauty of their brick or stonework, a clear weatherproofing coating is also available.
Q. Are wall coatings suitable for pebbledash?
A. It doesn’t matter whether the building is new or old, or the surface is brick, stone or pebbledash – Coatec Systems has the products that can give perfect results every time.
Q. Does this coating effect my property?
A. A wall coating not only looks good, it does the building good. It provides a protective skin, which is impenetrable to damp, improves heat and sound insulation, while still allowing the walls to breathe and remain dry.
Q. Wall coatings are expensive, wouldn't I be better off with normai paint?
A. When you consider that most conventional paints only have a lifespan of a couple of years, then add to that the cost and inconvenience of hiring decorators, plus regular repainting and maintenance – Coatec Systems wall coatings makes sound financial sense.
Not only does it maintain it’s looks and lasts longer than ordinary paint, but it also protects the building more effectively from the elements.
Whichever way you look at it, Coatec wall coatings are a small price to pay for complete peace of mind.
