- Q
Can external rendered walls be repaired/patched up easily?
The back of my house is rendered with sand and cement to half way up. I cannot afford to have it all removed and re-rendered (already had a quote) I have started to take off all the old paint (5 layers of it)in the hope I could revitalise it and a lot of the render has come away with the paint leaving areas of wall with no render, it now looks a mess basically. Would a reputable plasterer be able to repair these gaps if I make sure all the paint is off and what is left of the render is sound? Ball park figure of how much this may cost? Its an old red brick 3 bed semi. Pretty desperate really...

yes these can be repaired but with smooth render patches you can always see them. it would be a better job to do the full elevation.

how to resolve damp patches mid way up wall in basement room
thank you all for replying .
You all work along way from me so .I don't think you would be able to visit .
I like the nuair flatmaster idea and went on their website but would like to know from someone who has used these ?.
I can't dig the earth out from the other side of the end of terace wall as I don't own this land which is a huge pity as that would have been my first course of action .
The gurantees for the damp have finished and 1 firm wanted £90 to even have a look !
I will try and get a local damp proof builder out to see the prolem

you need to use 50mm thermaline super plasterboards on top of the tanking. this gives a warmer wall surface and reduces condensation problems.

The only system to use is the tanking system, which is really the best damp proofing system there is. Simple
