Scottland, Greenock Tower Blocks Project.

The first step to using PERMA-ROCK INSULATION is to apply a 120mm thick ROCKWOOL block to the outer surface of the facade using PERMA-ROCK BONDING AGENT and drilling and fixing plugs every 400mm.




Once completed you should make sure the surface has no lumps or bumps as these will be visible when direct sunlight hit the facade.






Once this is complete the complete surface needs to have a bonding coat using PERMA-ROCK BONDING and a mesh is applied into the coating and completely covered and once again fixing to the wall with plugs every 400mm.




The wall Plugs are made out of aluminium and are drilled directly into the original surface with at least 80mm clearance into the original building.





The plugs have a plastic spacing stopper known as a pin applied into the center and when hit through the plug it allows it to grip and make a firm contact with the original facade.




Once all the pins have been applied into the plugs there are covered up using the bonding agent.



Once all the facade has been covered the bonding needs to be coated with a primer the same colour as the K-REND that is going to be applied. In this instance grey and white where used.


Once all the markings are set out after the primer has set its time to apply the final K-REND FINISH. The substance is made up of ground granite and a paint like texture as is applied using a hawk and trowl and then rubbed up using a smooth plastic float for the fine grain finish.

  1. Plasterers as we speak are still in pressure but sadly however, the numbers are no the place near what they may have been a few years ago. That is attributable to many elements and one of those causes may very effectively be the fact that the developers of right this moment not want the expert plasterers sheffield that would have been used a few years ago.
