- 5Reduced dwell time near painted timber on stone cottages and converted mill buildings
Materials & methods we'd use here
Most Avonwick properties we treat have granite and painted render walls and a natural slate roof. That changes a few of the choices we'd make.
- Method
Quaternary ammonium surfactant added so biocide clings to your granite and painted render elevation in Avonwick
- Method
Suitable for K-Rend, Weber and silicone renders — common on the newer rural village properties around TQ10
- Method
Painted brickwork treated by dwell-and-rinse only on rural village terraces - no rotary
- Method
Lime render handled with a half-strength mix and a longer dwell — important on older Avonwick stock
