Traditional London Aesthetic Meets High-Performance Insulation
Brick Render in London. This project in the heart of London showcases how a heritage look can be achieved on a modern, high-performance building envelope. Using a Brick Slip system as the decorative finish, we provided this property with a classic facade that meets the most stringent energy requirements of 2026.
Why Brick Slips Are a Smart Choice in Modern Construction
1. The Look of Real Brick – Without the Weight
Brick slips are thin tiles manufactured from natural clay. They offer the identical appearance and texture of traditional brickwork but without the immense structural load. This makes them the perfect solution for London properties where adding weight to the existing foundation is not an option.
2. Full Compatibility with EWI Systems
These slips are designed to work as the final decorative layer for EWI Pro systems. This ensures the property is wrapped in a high-performance thermal envelope while remaining protected against the elements and mechanical impact.
3. Engineered for Longevity
Our brick slip systems are a low-maintenance, high-durability solution. They feature:
– Exceptionally low water absorption.
– High resistance to frost and UV degradation.
– Zero ongoing maintenance requirements.
4. Precision Installation
The success of this project relied on expert surface preparation. We utilised dedicated polymer adhesives and high-quality reinforcement mesh to create a stable substrate. Precision detailing around window reveals and corners ensures a seamless finish that prevents any risk of cracking or water ingress.
5. Versatile Application
Beyond the external facade, these brick slips are an excellent choice for interior “feature walls” in kitchens, hallways, or commercial spaces, providing a timeless industrial look anywhere in the building.
