Painting tyrolean
or carrying out a tyrolean repair can give a patchy and sometimes ugly finished look.The reason
repairing tyrolean
is difficult is that it has a textured cement finish on a basic sand and cement backing coat.
Trying to achieve an exact match years later to isolated blown areas will lead to a patchwork effect.
As the textured effect is achieved by firing cement slurry from a tyrolean gun any attempted repair inevitably leads to more slurry also hitting and sticking to surrounding areas of sound tyrolean and making these sections more prominent and noticeable.
If the blown or
cracked tyrolean
is caught early and is only a small area then a neat looking repair may be possible without looking too obvious..
Replacing Tyrolean Render
Often the best answer to
failed or blown tyrolean
is to remove it all and start from scratch.Considering the
tyrolean render
has failed already it would not seem sensible to put another layer back on the same wall and so in the vast majority of cases it is best to replace the damaged tyrolean rendering with a more robust and durable textured coating .

rendered wall
and stay clean.
Painting Tyrolean Rendering
Painting tyrolean rendering
every few years is essential to maintain protection against the weather. Unfortunately it can be very time consuming and expensive to achieve an even colour match and some sections of the wall will take more paint than others. This can also lead to shade variations across the wall.
If the tyrolean is still in sound condition it is more economical in the long run to let Wethertex apply our special masonry coating and eliminate regular re-painting.
Our specially formulated masonry paint is designed to resist rain water and frost attacks,allow the walls to breathe and stay clean for years to come. More importantly it will usually cost less money and comes with a guarantee as well.
Blown & Cracked Tyrolean can Cause damp Problems
Once water has got through the tyrolean into the wall it drops the wall temperature which in turn decreases the insulation ability of the wall by as much as 29% according to recent research at Portsmouth University.
On solid wall houses,
damp in tyrolean rendering
can often lead to damp patches on the inside walls from penetrating damp or condensation due to the colder walls.
