There are several reasons why someone would choose to use a plastered foundation.
Firstly, plaster can provide a smooth and polished finish to the foundation walls. This can enhance the overall appearance of the foundation, especially if it is going to be visible or exposed in any way.
Secondly, plaster can help to provide additional protection and durability to the foundation. It can act as a barrier against moisture, preventing it from seeping into the foundation and causing damage over time. This can help to extend the lifespan of the foundation and make it more resistant to wear and tear.
Additionally, plastered foundations can provide insulation benefits. Plaster acts as a thermal barrier, helping to regulate temperature and improve energy efficiency within the building. This can lead to reduced heating and cooling costs over time.
Lastly, plastered foundations can offer increased fire resistance. Plaster is naturally fire-resistant and can help to slow down the spread of fires, providing valuable time for evacuation and reducing potential damage.
Plastering helps shield the foundation from weathering and moisture, which can extend its lifespan. It can also boost insulation and thermal performance.
A plastered foundation is when a layer of plaster or render is applied to the outside of a foundation wall. It gives a clean, finished look and adds protection from the elements.
Yes – while it’s not a substitute for full waterproofing systems, a properly applied plaster layer adds an extra barrier against moisture and dampness.
Absolutely. We plaster new foundations and also do retrofits and tidy-ups for existing ones.
Most concrete or block foundations can be plastered. We’ll check the surface first to make sure it’s ready.
Yes, we’re based in Christchurch but work across the South Island – from Nelson to Invercargill.
Once the concrete has properly cured – usually around 28 days – we can start. We’ll coordinate with your build timeline.
Of course – get in touch and we’ll organise a no-obligation quote or site check.
At Plastered Foundations we can repair cracks in the foundation. When a foundation has not had adequate vibration, it can cause air pockets to show up leading to exposed aggregate. To remedy this we can seal and repair it to make it look just like finished concrete.
With foundation repair, general chips, hollows and damage can be levelled out, squared up and patched to replicate the desired concrete finish.
