whats the best way to give the render the course look. Does a wet sponge bring out the sand. After rubbing it up its very smooth. Just would like the top coat to be more gritty looking after rubbing it.

I've rendered over loads of this in the past as it's common in our area. Had no problems using s&c but client is asking for a thin coat finish. His neighbours had it done so it's what he'd like. Thoughts on process, I'm thinking get panels level with s&c. Using all that basecoat could shoot the cost up. The back is all thermalite:sick: opposite elevation is...

Hi
Last year i had a single story 12 by 4m extension built. The walls were rendered in April last year but due to problems with the patio the same builder was putting in, the render was not painted.
After a very long battle to get the patio done correctly and waiting until dryer weather we were finally getting ready to paint the wall render as well as a rendered retaining wall on the other side to the patio.
All the render on the build is chalky so I have been told to stabilise it. So...

Evening fellow spreads
I have a big problem, started scratching up exterior walls for smooth float finish render,
It seems to pull in too quickly to flatten properly, which does concern me for when we start ruling off and floating up.
I have tryed sbr on the back ground 50/50 water and sbr brushed on to substrate but not really much different.
The morter joints are lime morter and we were working in the shade so it was not the sun.
Can anyone advise me pls

Help.. what should we do to fix uneven render

We have recently had our house rendered... this is how it looks. We have had so many contradictory recommendations on how to fix it: hacking off and starting over, EML meshing and then re rendering, applying Sovereign plastplusX and re rendering over this. It has 3 coats of paint on it. Has anyone got any experience of fixing render that looks like this..
