RENDERING: Worst Garden Wall **EVER Needs FIXING…"THIS NEEDS KNOCKING DOWN"

thank you

I wish i knew how to post pictures on here of the wall i have to render in the next couple of weeks, we have hacked off old render that had cracks appearing but soon realised the render was actually as good as you can get and was a nightmare to remove that then only left 1 outcome for the cracks, the brickwork had large cracks all over it, there was no mortar in the joints, every service was being brought outside via that wall and the plumbers had butchered the walls and filled the holes around the pipes with pieces of brick. Not to mention the lack of mortar had caused some bricks to push towardds the cavity as we were hacking off. We came off the job and got a bricky in to make the wall right for rendering but have no idea what we will return to but i can honestly say working around 5 yes 5 windows and door will actually seem like a walk in the park no doubt.

Why even bother with using mesh?

how many bags you use?

Spectacular work man. Turned out great. Painted up nice with a few brackets and planters and it could set off the brick wall lovely.

Would you use Weber OCR to patch a fairly large repair on a blown cement rendered wall?

It's not falling down, so what's the issue?

Brought to you by Refina.

Smooth as silk. Well done. Need a wall doing, can you sort it?

Have to say, that is one of the best videos, and best results (considering the state that 'wall' was in. You're clearly fantastic at your job. Proper master tradesmen, they are thin on the ground..

Hi - I have a repair to do on the front of the bay. The horizontal is fine but the angled bell went all green and the concrete paint went soft / permeable. I have scrapped off about 4mm of render some of which was damp so obviously moisture was getting through. Should I remove the lot or can I just patch over the existing render? Its a strip the width of the bay by about 9 inches on an angle? Do I need mesh to give it strength considering what has happened?

Hoya mate have you dont any of the coloured one coat renders? Can they be scratched?

Great work bud i think youve convinced me

That’s a rustic finish ❤

See extensions Dya bead same day and all with the Weber or bead day prior

Hello sausage 🤣 what did you use for the scratch coat? Was it sand and cement and then the weber ocr for the final coat?

I have a very poor Tyrolean wall that needs a lot of knocking off and patching. Can I apply Tyrolean over the already painted surface. I’ll use your tender and primer for the patches but I’m worried about going onto the original surface when I blend. I love your videos and I’ve learned plastering through you and your kindness to help people like me. Thanks very much

Is this webber ocr a breathable product like lime render?

I’ve been following you for years, you helped me learn how to plaster (DIY level any way lol) and now how to render walls. Thank you!

I would of fixed (plug and screwed) EML, Galvanised Expanded Metal Lath or Galvanised External/Internal Rib Lath sheets to the wall, then applied two coats of a sand-cement-lime mix, using 6 parts plastering sand, 1 part cement, 1 part lime.

Really good work but here in the states my competitors would charge $300 for a wall like that and just one shot a thick coat of quick set and texture it out. Very frustrating here to do work properly.

I need to re-plaster a wall that has acrylic paint on it. What would you use to get a good key please?

Great video, Could you do more on the power float, tips, technics, timing's etc 👍

That came out perfect, I have a 50m perimeter wall looking as rough as that one did, might steal your technique!

Weber looks lovely to use, what's the coverage per bag?

Hi Blaine I’m going to try my hand at plastering one wall in my bathroom.I’ve ripped the tiles off obviously half the plaster has come off with it so I’m going to take it down to the brick.have you got a link to a video that takes you through all the stages.also has a small window with a deep recess.

I think I'll try that weber stuff

Hi Blaine will you be doing a follow up video about using the roller to apply skimcoat plaster?
That was a great topic!

Brilliant

Complete nonsense to knock the wall down or build one next to it, if you want it 100% straight just use polystyrene sheets or hard insulation sheets and then you can render it. Other alternative is decorative or real stone tiles or composite cladding, but why knock stable wall, doesn't make sense

Do you have a link for the scabbler blade?

Good effort Blaine 👍.

Great chanel bud watched most of ur tutorials 1 question im from Ireland and the most common sand and cement finnish we have is a nap finish the a napping sponge iv looked 4 this on ur videos and have cn u do it??

👍👍👍

Get yourself a plastic draper hawk man. You’ll never look back. 10€on Amazon.

Always use mesh in my rendering work

Hi Blaine, I notice you render to the floor without any drip/bellcast beads on garden walls, doesn't this cause any issues?

I think that primer only allowes for 25 mm of render tho

Nice job! Try turning the mesh the opposite way it’s rolled mate! It won’t curl away from the wall-and is easier to bed in ! Just a tip that I do which until I was told never even occurred to me👌

Turn the mesh over so it’s not pulling away from wall. Its finding the right bagged gear that suits yourself. Some are a nightmare hawk and trowel.

Hi m8 what attachement did you use on your power float

Really good job with what you had to work with. Have you done any vids on how to do rounded surfaces like a bay window?

Weber, sponsor this man!! I'm sure more people are buying thanks to Blaine 👍🏽

Alright pal, when we are using hp12 to sort out poor walls like this, we’ll blue grit it, coat & mesh and once it’s gone off, we will pin the scrim coat with the big plastic polish and pins to secure it. Just a thought👍👍 always good to see someone else work 😂👍

Love it pal 👍🏻 speed skim crew 👍🏻

Love these vids mate.

Nice job, you have done exactly what was asked and smashed it! I’d be over the moon with that “tidy up” job

👌
