Bricklaying & Repointing

Do I render a new block wall before or after fitting the coping?

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.17 PM

I've built block walls and will render them with sand and cement. Should I do this before fitting the coping flags on top of the wall, or should I fit the coping and then render up the wall to it? What do you normally do?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?
