Why renovate a facade?
The facade is your building's first line of defense against external attacks.
A well-executed renovation allows you to:
• Protect the building against bad weather, UV rays, and pollution.
• Improve the aesthetics of the exterior, thus increasing the value of the property.
• Preserve insulation by repairing cracks and applying suitable products.
Localized example:
In a villa in Grimaud , a facade damaged by salt exposure was renovated with a lime coating , guaranteeing natural and aesthetic protection.
The different techniques for facade renovation
There are several methods for renovating a facade, depending on its condition, its material, and the desired effect.
Here's an overview of the most common techniques.
1. Facade painting
Facade painting is a quick and effective solution to refresh the appearance of a building while providing protection against the elements.
Suitable paint types:
Ideal for concrete walls and facades in good condition.
• Pliolite paint:
Weather resistant and suitable for humid regions.
• Siloxane paint:
Permeable to water vapor, it is perfect for old facades.
Concrete example:
In Saint-Tropez, a concrete facade was repainted with siloxane paint for a durable matte effect that is resistant to climatic aggression.
2. Facade coating
Facade coating is a versatile solution that protects and beautifies walls.
It can be applied in several finishes: smooth, scraped, or troweled.
Types of coatings:
• Single-layer coating:
Combines protection and finishing in one application.
• Lime plaster:
Natural and breathable, ideal for older homes.
• Decorative coating (stucco or marmorino):
Brings a luxurious and unique touch.
Localized example:
In a house in Draguignan, a lime coating was applied to restore an old facade while preserving its authenticity.
3. Limewash
Limewash is an ancestral technique which allows you to decorate and protect facades while allowing the walls to breathe.
Benefits of whitewash:
• Natural and ecological:
Composed of air lime, it is environmentally friendly.
• Aesthetic effect:
Provides a matte, slightly textured finish.
• Suitable for humid climates: Reduces the risk of mold.
Localized example:
In Grimaud , a tinted lime wash was used to restore a soft, natural tint to an old façade.
4. Decorative techniques: Marmorino and Stucco
For a high-end facade, techniques such as stucco or marmorino bring a unique touch.
• Stucco:
Provides a shiny effect close to marble.
• Marmorino:
Gives a satin appearance and a velvety texture.
Localized example:
In Ramatuelle, a stone facade has been embellished with beige marmorino for a modern and elegant look.
