The month of March signals the start of British summertime and (hopefully) dryer, warmer days are soon to arrive. The dryer weather provides the perfect opportunity to get the garden in tiptop condition so that you can easily prepare for sunnier months ahead.


At Sovereign we have a wide range of products which can help transform any outdoor space or garden area – giving you the perfect setting for those upcoming summer barbecues.


If winter has left your garden path or patio in shabby condition then one product that will help eradicate grime is Sovereign Masonry Sterilising Wash. Over time, stonework on paths and patios can easily become susceptible to green mould and algae – causing an unsightly appearance to any outdoor setting. Sovereign Masonry Sterilising Wash is a concentrated blend of Quaternary Ammonium Salt, degreasing agent and other additives in water. Available in 5 litres, this Sterilising Wash is a high performance solution to ridding any outdoor masonry of unappealing mould or algae.


Another essential product for getting your garden ready for the summer months is Sovereign Easy Paving Grout. After cleaning your patio or garden path, you can easily get the re-pointing done with this Paving Grout. This resin coated aggregate just needs to be brushed into any suitably prepared joints in paving to point up. Just leave the grout to set and then the next day you can simply sweep up any excess. The great thing about Sovereign Easy Paving Grout is that it is much faster to install and more durable than normal sand or sand/cement based jointing compounds and the grout also binds firmly to pavers.


After starting these jobs, you will surely want to add that completing finish and what better way to do so than by sealing the surface of your newly cleaned patio or path with one of our specialist sealers such as Sovereign Path and Drive Sealer. A solvent based polymeric product, this clear sealer boasts deep penetration into patio flagstones and garden paths – giving an effective clean finish while also providing protection against stains caused by oils, dirt and water.

At Sovereign we provide a number of specially designed products which have been created and developed to help combat the appearance and build-up of condensation. One particular product range which helps to eradicate the appearance of condensation is our selection of Passive Vapour Vents.

 

Sovereign Passive Vapour VentsEach Passive Vapour Vent comes equipped with a permeable membrane, which is housed within its main plastic circular tube. One feature of the permeable membrane is that it acts as a molecular sieve – allowing water vapour to pass through to the outside but at the same time resisting rapid air movement so there is limited heat loss. It also allows for air changes within the property whilst preventing cold draughts, often associated with normal standard air vents.

 

Passive Vapour Vents are also fitted with a unique cowl which works by counteracting the detrimental effects of external wind on performance ensuring heat stays inside while draught is avoided.

 

Condensation can cause unsightly black spot mould growth, therefore taking action by fitting Passive Vapour Vents can help to eradicate the all too common nuisance that is condensation.

 

There are a number of different benefits to choosing a Passive Vapour Vent as a condensation solution. One of the main advantages is that installing a Passive Vapour Vent is relatively straightforward and fast. Furthermore, once fitted there are no running costs involved, so you can just install the vent and leave it to work.

 

At Sovereign we offer a number of different Passive Vapour Vents depending on your requirements. Our “High Rise” versions are specifically designed for areas where access is restricted or installation is at a height where expensive scaffolding would normally be required, but a self-sealing external fitment which means that there is no work required on the outside. Another type of Passive Vapour Vent is the “Extendable” Version which is ideal for fitting in thicker walls as the vent can extend and be fitted in walls measuring from 350mm up to 600mm.

 

Passive Vapour Vents together with condensation control and treatment products can be purchased online at Sovereign. For more information about any of our products please do not hesitate to get in touch with us today.
