When do render cracks need repairing?

  • Cracks in the render or monocouche
  • Damp on the inside wall
  • Pieces of render coming loose
  • Cracks that keep growing

What the crack repair includes

  • Assessing each crack

    We tell shrinkage, thermal and structural cracks apart before starting work.

  • Raking out and cleaning

    We open the crack into a V, remove loose material and clear the dust.

  • Flexible sealing

    A flexible filler or mortar that moves with the wall without reopening.

  • Reinforcing mesh

    Glass-fibre mesh embedded in mortar where cracks keep coming back.

  • Render reinstatement

    Monocouche or render of the same type as the original, with a similar texture.

  • Final protection

    Breathable paint or water repellent so water cannot get back in.

Façade cracks in Mataró: why they appear

In houses on developments in areas such as Centre, Eixample and Havana, besides the façade we often repair boundary and garden walls, which crack with ground movement and watering. We seal them and, where cracks recur, embed mesh before reinstating the finish.

To finish, on façades in areas such as Rocafonda, El Palau and Escorxador we reinstate the monocouche or render with the same type of material and a similar texture, scraped or smooth. We then apply breathable paint or water repellent and, if the patch shows, recommend painting the whole panel.

We protect pavements, windows and gardens, take down scaffolding or ropes at the end and leave the area clean. We repair façades nearby too: Argentona, Cabrera de Mar and Sant Andreu de Llavaneres.

Frequently asked questions

01

Exterior render crack repair in Mataró: which areas do you cover?

We work in Mataró in areas such as Centre, Eixample, Havana, Rocafonda, El Palau, Escorxador, Cerdanyola and La Llàntia, and also nearby: Argentona, Cabrera de Mar and Sant Andreu de Llavaneres.

02

Are all façade cracks serious?

No. Most come from shrinkage or thermal movement in the render and are repaired with sealing and mesh. If we see diagonal cracks, cracks running through the wall or cracks that keep growing, we recommend having a surveyor check the structure first.

03

Why is filling the crack not enough?

If the crack is not opened up and sealed with a flexible material, movement in the wall makes it show again. That is why we rake it out, clean it and add mesh where cracks keep recurring.

04

Will the repair be visible?

We match the texture of the render as closely as we can, but new colour almost always stands out. That is why we usually recommend repainting the whole section afterwards.
