OUTSULATION to Insulate
Sto offer ‘Refurbishment’ systems, a way to breathe new life into older facades, a sustainable choice in ‘reuse-repurpose’ rather than demolish and start again, which equals saving money and resources (reducing the carbon embodiment).
A ‘Superhome’ solution where you make an existing cold, non-Superhome into a high-performance Superhome. With OUTSULATION solutions. It is a new cladding option that will allow the incorporation of insulation to the outside (best place) of the building, so there will be no interior size reduction.
For existing Solid Wall: (Masonry or Solid Brick), we will adhere and mechanically fix insulation (full envelope) directly to the outside using countersunk fixings to avoid thermal loss. Then it receives the full amazing Sto Render and Finishing System.
For existing Timber Framing: we move to a Bracket and Rail System to allow outsulation over a rigid air barrier. A cavity and a lightweight sheet (incorporating up to 95% post-consumer recycled glass) weighing in at around 18kg/m2.
It equals no additional bracing or stress on the existing building.
Great on tight hill sites.

We live in a world with cyclic weather changes and with weather bomb disruptions. Looking out the window you see how much the weather hits your building. Then we have the invisible enemy wind and sun. Your exterior is more than visual, it must perform to protect the building structure, and everything within.
Renovation is an opportunity, with a car you trade up, so think of RENO as ‘upgrading to a newer model’.
Your home is a major investment, and you want to upgrade, enhance its value, improve its performance. Better insulation, Air, Lighting and so on, and even make it more open plan. We have both Exterior and Interior solutions. Today I will cover the most important, the Exterior thatprotects your valuable home from all the elements the Weather and some natural disasters. Sto Deluxe System offers Averages 4mm+ of THICK weather protective coating.
Your Exterior walls come in so many different forms and types.

Maintenance, no matter your exterior they all require maintenance, there is no maintenance free system,just low maintenance. With our coats of the StoColour DRYONIC paint, repaint with regular maintenance can be every 12 years, itmay be sooner with harsh environmental conditions.
COSTING: The Refurbishment, the cost? It would be at least half the cost of the price to removeand reclad.
OUTsulation Cost, will range on what R value you want, but when considering the cost of removinginterior linings to add Insulation and relining. Is Like the Refurbishment cost plus the Insulationsupply and fix.
To assist, we can at Sto can offer free advice, though involving a Superhome Architect will give you agreater range of solutions. Reuse and repurpose is a fantastic way to reduce impact on carbon emissions.
