Hi, could you give me some advice on how to make off-white render. My client has requested me to do the render in an off-white colour is it possible or we have to repaint it.
How is it a mistake? Perhaps they've owned the house for a long time and were ready for something new, ever think of that? And really, it's probably going to look better than it did.
You better give him the full lime story as he probably thinks NHL 5 is the ancient non hydraulic lime rather than the natural hydraulic lime@@richardgrimbleby7853
Not good, but it could be the customer directed that - sort of thing I used advise on and leave to them to decide (I'm not a cable guy or an electrician). If it is electric, then it is a bad decision.
Ocr is the base coat for the colour render never seen someone use it as the finished product on a other note keep your tools clean when using cause this stuff will destroy your tools if you leave it on to long its really sticky stuff
Why not just dust off and dampen the wall before laying on the scratch coat ? I have never seen anyone use a primer for that stuff. Ive seen them use sbr for s&c rendering but thats it.
Does rendering have any bad side effects ? Like drainage or airflow ? As you can guess I’m a complete airbrain , my house badly need repointing as a lot of the like mortar is become flakey and I was looking into rendering rather than repointing ….. trying to get as much info as possible.
Nice to see that some new materials are made for multiple purposes. Seems like you know how it's supposed to be applied. I like your wavey scratch lines, most guys just scratch straight. But we know that there is a reason for the waves,which keeps the double coat ridged and secure. I haven't seen too many guys that have a traditional style ,and you have that style. Nice to see a real plaster man. Great video. I AM PLASTERER😎 1963
@richardgrimbleby7853 There is an important reason for waves. I've never had any problems with water in the waves. If a wall is too wet,we wait. But normally, if a scratch coat is too dry, we may spray the wall. It will make the double coat more workable.. I have never used straight scratch lines. They are not functional, and they don't look nice. Every step has to look good for everyone to see,even the scratch coat. If I showed you, you would understand?

Hi Great demo can you re cement over a cemented wall? In ok condition but 30 year old needs a refresh would you have to take the cement off before rendering?
From what I know about Weber, you should be able to top coat it now. Just make sure your surface is clean and I would suggest dampening it so the top coat can stick better. I'm no expert, though! Rather double-check!
It’s definitely something that you can learn. But it’s totally different to skimming - there’s a lot more to it. With practice you’ll learn but it’s not as easy as Plastering in my opinion
is i expensive, and would it be worth it for garden walls, that need making look nicer? - they probably need re pointing, would just chucking this over the whole lot save me doing that? looking for a 'lazy' solution, tbh.
This should have had mesh in it, plus there was no reason to use that stop bead on that centreline, as a good rendering gang can easily work quickly enough to cover each lift without it going off too quickly. That bead would piss me off to look at
It is a lot more expensive to be fair. It’s probably 40% more expensive. However, I feel you make your money back with time saved. I wouldn’t go back to S/C now though 👍
I was asked to build a mansion for a billionaire. It was in the middle of nowhere, I'm talking the countryside. About 12 hours drive to the site. It was almost off grid. Most of my clients are high, so they want the best. And I work to a very high standard and give them the best.. and to to this day I have never had a single complaint, and I've been doing this work for over 35 years. Anyway I got all the foundations done and prepped everything ready for the build, got all the materials delivered for the whole build. My plan was that once I got on site I would stay there until I finished. There was a temporary Porta cabin, etc etc. I was going to start on a Sunday morning. So I turns up to the site.. only to realise I had left my tool bag at home. It contained most of my building tools. I contemplated driving back to pick them up but it would mean I would lose a day. And seeing as though I planned to finish the whole project off in 2 weeks, I couldn't leave. So I took out my flask, and poured myself a cuppa, and had my sandwich, cheese and pickle it was. Whilst eating, I thought of many ways to get around the problem. Then it hit me. I may have forgotten my tool bag, but I had other things I could use. I looked around and found a tablespoon, a Butter knife, a fork, toothbrush, scissors. I soon got to work. Got really stuck in. I ended up building the whole house, completely inside and out. Using the above mentioned utensils. Mixed cement, Plaster with the spoon for eg. Plastered and did the brickwork with the knife.. Painted with the toothbrush... Etc etc. The work was done to a very high standard as per usual. The customer was so pleased with the quality of workmanship, they gave me an extra million quid. I completed it in 2 weeks.
Why would anyone have their brick covered. Now, they will need to maintain it every 7 years or so. If anything, you should have just had the house brick pointed. You'd be good until the end of dsys.... Bad mistake there.....
