Celina - Renovations

Renovations What if the exterior of your house is tired-looking and needs improving to bring it up to the best standards of presentation. That is no problem for Celina-Klinker. Provided the substrate is sound, free of dust, grime and oil brickslips can be applied directly to the exterior walls. In certain instances an anti-crack rendering system would need to be applied to fully stabilize the old walls. Walls could also be further insulated before cladding using a proprietary insulating board. The two pictures below illustrate perfectly what can be achieved by cladding old walls, replacing windows and generally tidying the whole thing up. The government requirements to drastically improve the housing stock over the next 10 years bring into focus how valuable this application is.

Local Authorities and Housing Associations For local authorities or housing associations looking to improve their housing stock without destroying whole communities the use of thinbricks is a vital part of this approach. Thinbricks and Stegu stones can be used to renovate single houses, blocks or whole streets or even the decorative elements of tower blocks. To this end bricks and stones can be made to blend with the colour and texture of the existing houses.

In the example on the right here, the lower portion has been renovated using a Stegu stone cladding to compliment the old brickwork above.

What makes the Celina Klinker so good? Corner pistols are as integral part of the assortment. Therefore corners or window/door reveals are no problem and are treated in the same way as in a conventional brick build. There is no need to make specific design moderations. This attention to detail is so important to the finished building.

These corner pistols are produced 215/100 x 65 x 15mm.
