Question 1: "I live in an old stone cottage – how can I stop the damp getting in?"

 

Living in a charming old stone cottage certainly has its appeal, but battling dampness can be a real challenge. Fear not! Extreme Climate is your ultimate solution for masonry protection! With its high-performance formula, this innovative water seal is designed to withstand extreme conditions with ease.

Question 2: "I feel like my roof lets down the rest of my house because it’s covered in moss and lichen."

 

A mossy, lichen-covered roof can indeed detract from the overall aesthetic of your home. But fret not, as there are solutions to restore your roof's glory. Kolourseal Flexible Roof Coating is a high-integrity roof tile sealant and colourant which you can easily apply by brush or spray. Kolourseal utilises top-grade pure acrylic polymers to ensure durability, along with UV-stable pigments that offer vibrant color depth and a lifespan of up to 10 years. Plus, it truly breathes life into old roofs, revitalizing them with a fresh, vibrant appearance. Your roof will be your house’s crowning glory in no time!

 

 

 

Question 3: "I spent thousands on a new patio, but it looks awful after winter."

 

Investing in a new patio is a significant commitment, so it's disheartening when harsh weather takes its toll. However, there's hope! Engineered to perfection, Kingfisher’s K-Seal Block and Paving Sealer boasts unparalleled resistance against all types of dirt, preventing surface staining and weather damage with ease. Its durable finish ensures long-lasting protection, shielding your patio from signs of wear and tear for years to come. Before you use it, clean the area and carry out any repairs to pointing or pavers.

 

 

 

Question 4: "This one patch of black mold above my shower keeps coming back whatever I do."

 

Dealing with persistent black mold can be frustrating, especially in a high-moisture area like the bathroom. Break free from the cycle of clean, redecorate, repeat – use Thermapaint and its companion product Mould Cure to get mould out of your life forever. Unlike other anti-fungal paints, Thermapaint combines microsphere technology to control condensation and anti-mould chemistry to stop re-infection. Plus, it's low odour and easy to clean once cured. It can be easily applied with a roller or brush, just like regular emulsion.
