External Wall Insulation in Hythe
In the coastal town of Hythe, protecting your property from salt-laden air, damp, and shifting weather conditions is a key concern. External wall insulation and silicone render systems provide not only long-term protection but also a cleaner, more attractive finish. RDL Render delivers premium installation services for homeowners and developers in Hythe and the wider South East.
Why Coastal Homes in Hythe Choose RDL Render
Hythe’s proximity to the sea means properties here are constantly exposed to coastal weather. RDL’s Kent-based rendering team understands this challenge and has spent over three decades helping local homes stay protected and energy-efficient. Whether it’s a detached house near Seabrook or a cottage in central Hythe, we provide specialist render solutions that stand the test of time.
Specialist Render Systems Available in Hythe
External Wall Insulation (EWI)
Our EWI systems involve fixing an insulation layer to the outside of your home and covering it with a weatherproof render. This reduces heat loss and helps combat internal condensation, which is essential for properties close to the sea.
Silicone and Self-Coloured Renders
We offer silicone-based render systems that are dirt-resistant, breathable, and available in hundreds of colours. These are particularly suited for the damp, salty air found along the Kent coast.
Monocouche and Thin Coat Render
Monocouche render gives a textured finish with long-lasting colour. Thin coat render, ideal when used over EWI, provides a modern, crisp look.
Brick Slip Detailing and Aluminium Copings
Traditional finishes can still work with modern systems. RDL installs brick slips that match Hythe’s character and aluminium copings that enhance rooflines and parapet walls.
Relevant RDL Case Study: Stag Point, Dover
Just along the coast from Hythe, RDL worked on a full render and insulation project at Stag Point in Dover. Here, a silicone-based system was installed over EWI to protect against the harsh sea air. This project shows how the right system improves both durability and appearance.
