The Best Western Plus New House Country Hotel, Thornhill boasts breath-taking views across Cardiff and the Severn estuaries. This impressive building is in constant demand as a wedding venue and weekend retreat and must meet the high standards expected of its guests. After many years of braving the elements, the hotel exterior was in need of a total redecoration so Bagnalls were asked to present a bespoke solution.
Bagnalls worked with supply chain partner, Crown Paints, to deliver a specification tailored to meet the hotel’s requirements. The external walls were initially prepared using a fungicidal wash, then any exposed cracks were filled with a robust external sealant. The paint finish had to be able to withstand the extreme elements that the weather can produce, so Sandtex Trade X-Treme X-Posure smooth masonry paint was specified. This superior coating is a durable, smooth masonry paint which provides the best possible protection against extreme weather exposure for the long term. It has properties to endure climatic changes, has anti-carbonation protection, is highly flexible and resistant to the re-appearance of hairline cracks and is BBA approved with 15 years of proven durability. The client chose a colour for the masonry that not only gave the building a fresh new look but also complemented the beautiful landscaped gardens, eclipsing the hotel.
The customer was overjoyed with the end result.
