The site is located in an area classified as having “very severe” weather by the rain driven index. As a result, it was essential that Fassa specified a complete integrated render and paint system to effectively weather-proof the 60 new dwellings, which consist of two bed bungalows and two, three and four bed houses. Fassa Bortolo’s specialist team has worked with the developer on the building to provide a suitable facade which ensures the best level of protection for the properties. Covering a total surface space of over 10,000 m2, KC 1 was used as a base coat, followed by a priming undercoat of FX 526 and a layer of PX 505 acrylic-siloxane paint in shade Pastel white, SA22 and TS03 to finish.
Morgan Construction Wales is a family-run business, building in excess of 200 high end homes across Wales each year. Malcolm Davies, Procurement Manager at Morgan Construction said: "We worked in partnership with Stephen Gore of Fassa from specification stage to completion to secure an integrated render and paint system to meet the project and Local Authority requirement. We were very satisfied with Fassa’s 365 colour range which easily allowed us to choose a shade which would meet our client’s requirements."
The rendering work was carried out by John Goodwin of Pembrokeshire Machine Plastering. John was incredibly impressed with the quality of the products, commenting: ‘With over 45 years’ experience in the render industry, working all across Europe and using many different materials, I’ve found that Fassa render is by far the easiest and most consistent render on the market.
