The textured lime plaster weber.cal 286 offers the easy possibility to give ugly tiles in bathrooms or kitchens between upper and lower cupboards a new decorative appearance.

Repair of salt-loaded and damp-damaged facades

Old facades are often damaged by moisture and salts that have migrated into the construction. Chalking surfaces, spalling plaster, moisture penetration, surface discolouration and cracking are the…

Over-working of painted or wallpapered interior plasters with lime plaster

Mineral or organic plasters with non-elastic coatings can be over-worked with textured lime plasters without difficulty.

Coating of lime sandstones and aerated concrete (flat, glued) with lime plaster

Bonded interior masonry of lime sandstones and aerated concrete has a very high evenness. If the eventually existing electrical installations are located in the masonry, it can be very easily…

Rendering of concrete clinker facades and ceramic tiles (poorly absorbent substrates)

Conventional lime-cement plasters are the best solution for these substrates due to their low water content.

Professional rendering/plastering of wood wool lightweight panels

There are several options for plastering magnesite-bonded wood wool lightweight board panels, the safest of which are shown here.

Accurate rendering of Gisoton bricks

GISOTON bricks are heat-insulating and mainly consist of a core of polystyrene and expanded clay on the front side. Different surfaces require a tailored choice of renders for the reliable rendering…

Correct rendering of major unevennesses

Rendering of chipboard concrete formwork blocks

Wood-chip cement formwork blocks are a particular substrate for rendering. In contrast to polystyrene formwork blocks, wood-chip concrete blocks can be rendered with conventional mortars. Two…

Correct rendering over half-timbered buildings

When renovating half-timbered buildings, damaged areas or weather sides exposed to heavy driving rain can be durably protected with a new render.

Professional rendering/plastering of polystyrene formwork blocks

Depending on the surface's unevenness, polystyrene formworks blocks can be rendered/plastered after filling either with a normal reinforcing mortar or a special lightweight render.

Correct rendering of XPS-R-insulation boards

In the case of heat-insulating masonry, thermal bridges (e.g. ceiling edges, lintels, columns, projections and skirting areas) are often formed with XPS-R insulation boards.

Correct rendering on mineral building boards

Mineral renders can be easily applied also on mineral boards. It is important to respect the specified minimum layer thickness.

Correct rendering of high-porosity substrates (aerated concrete and lime sandstones)

Renovation of cracked, non-painted mineral facade renders

The method can be used to renovate unpainted, mineral renders on facades if these only show render-related shrinkage and stress cracks. It must be ruled out that these are construction-related cracks…

Renovation with lime and trass lime plasters in the preservation of historical monuments

Here, a possibility is shown how to renovate historical without using lime-cement plasters, but only lime and trass lime plasters.

Repair of non-active cracks on facades

The repair of static (stationary or slightly moving) cracks is most safely carried out with an ETICS (see also application tip: "Repair of cracked facades or joints with an ETICS"). If only the…

Restoration of fair-faced half-timbered structures

When renovating a half-timbered structure, it is sometimes necessary to completely re-create the framework (i.e. open spaces between the beams). In many cases, however, only the existing brick-lined…

Securing of ceramic cladding or double-shell masonry on facades

When renovating facades with render or ETICS, one often encounters substrates with ceramic claddings or double-shell masonry.
