Dorset's Jurassic Coast runs for 95 miles from Exmouth to Studland Bay, and the combination of prevailing south-westerly winds and direct Atlantic and Channel exposure means properties along and behind this coastline face some of the most aggressive marine conditions in southern England. Salt-laden air penetrates inland along the Frome and Piddle river valleys toward Dorchester and Wareham, and up the Bride Valley toward Bridport, carrying salt deposits that settle on masonry surfaces and draw in further moisture even during dry periods. Annual rainfall averages around 800mm county-wide.
Bournemouth contains the highest concentration of Victorian and Edwardian bay-fronted terraces in the South West outside of Bristol — densely packed streets of rendered and painted properties. Poole and Christchurch have large interwar rendered semi-detached properties. West Dorset — Bridport, Beaminster, Lyme Regis — has traditional limestone and sandstone cottages with lime render. Weymouth town centre retains Georgian and Victorian rendered seafront stock directly exposed to Portland Harbour.
Salt-driven deterioration on Bournemouth and Weymouth seafront properties is among the fastest in southern England: masonry paint on south-facing Channel-facing elevations fails within two to three years, and the underlying render absorbs salt deposits that drive the paint off from behind even on recently repainted surfaces. Bridport and Lyme Regis stone and lime render properties suffer frost spalling on the Jurassic limestone substrate each winter. In the Frome and Piddle valleys, properties otherwise sheltered from direct coastal exposure still receive elevated salt loading from valley-channelled sea air. A fully waterproof coating breaks this cycle.
Discover why 10,000s of homeowners each year are switching from traditional masonry paint.

Yes — coastal exposure is one of the most common conditions we work with in Dorset. Properties in Swanage, Lyme Regis, and along the Weymouth seafront face accelerated paint failure from salt air, and our coating is designed to withstand that exposure without the repeated repainting cycle a masonry paint finish would need.
In the vast majority of cases, yes. Our coatings create a fully waterproof but breathable barrier that prevents water ingress while allowing moisture already in the wall to escape. This is covered by the 20-year guarantee.
