If you love the natural look of your brick, stone, or masonry property, the last thing you want to do is cover it with paint or render. But porous masonry acts like a sponge — it absorbs rain, which leads to penetrating damp, heat loss, frost damage, and unsightly algae and moss growth on the wall surface.
Clear waterproof coatings solve this problem by providing a completely invisible water-repellent barrier that stops rain from soaking into the masonry whilst still allowing moisture vapour to escape from within the wall. The result is a dry, protected wall that looks exactly the same as before — but performs dramatically better.
At KDS Property Preservation, we use premium silane/siloxane-based masonry protection creams such as Stormdry Masonry Protection Cream. Unlike cheap liquid silicone sealers that sit on the surface and leave a shiny "wet look", our cream-based products penetrate deep into the pores of the masonry (up to 12mm) and bond chemically with the substrate. Once cured, the treatment is completely invisible — you cannot see it, feel it, or smell it.
