Are you looking to cover your exterior walls so that they have a beautiful rustic finish? Bagging is the perfect way to achieve this. It is cost effective and available in a range of colours. Read on for more.

Bagging is a type of rendering that is perfect if you are looking for a charming, rustic finish on your exterior walls or surfaces. There are special bagging renders available or you can use standard render and the mix is applied to the wall roughly using materials such as trowels, sponges, hessian bags, and so on. Different colours are available so you can choose one that fits your personal tastes and also suits the other elements of your home.

When the bagging is done, the professional will first prep the surfaces as necessary, removing mould, dirt and so on. They will then mix and apply the render. A bagged wall generally only has one coating of render mix applied in a circular pattern.

Bagging can be done by a professional such as a bricklayer, plasterer or renderer. Whoever you choose, ensure that they are appropriately qualified, licensed and insured. Ask to see examples of their previous work and always make sure that you get detailed quotes before allowing any work to go ahead.
