Application Situation
Window sills, lintels and the external walls of the bank.
Application Method
Application was carried out in accordance with Belzona Know-How System Leaflets WPA-1 and WPA-4. The defective external wall coatings were removed. Some of the broken profiles around the windows and the lintel above the front door were repaired with Belzona® 4141. Belzona® 5151 was then applied to the stonework to protect the surface from further damage.
Belzona Facts
The poor appearance of the bank led to the village being rejected for a Civic Trust award. This ledto pressure on the bank to improve its external facade. The Belzona solution was chosen for its speed in carrying out the upgrade and the self-cleaning properties of the Belzona® 5151 will ensure the buildings appearance will be maintained for many years to come.
