Materials & methods we'd use here

Most Kings Tamerton properties we treat have pebbledash and painted render walls and a concrete tile roof. That changes a few of the choices we'd make.

  • Method

    Selective biocide pre-treat to kill moss at the root - extra important on exposed modern estate sites

  • Method

    Rotary surface cleaner for stripe-free finish on block paving common across post-war semis and 1960s cul-de-sacs

  • Method

    Kiln-dried jointing sand brushed in once the surface is dry on every Kings Tamerton job

  • Method

    Optional breathable acrylic sealer - lasts longer at Kings Tamerton's exposed exposure
