3175darren 1,102 Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 I have a old house with much the same issues , just had a guy in and waiting for the quote, what I would want to know is the Tyrolean dashing worth having, also does anyone have the external insulation on, I was told it is worse as it locks damp in, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 6,570 Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Not yet fella. Arrival of little one meant money has been spent elsewhere. I think this year may be me up the ladder patching what I can with a view to saving up for next year.I'm in the same boat too. I got a rough quote for about 2500 off one plasterer who was going to spray on the K.rend stuff but I hear different reviews on it. It's bloody expensive too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I work in construction and the k rend was the best thing since sliced bread when it came out. now my build colleagues are revisiting a lot of jobs because of issues cracking and colour going patchy. From what I hear it wont be used anymore at our firm and they are a national firm. That said there is usually issues with any render from what Im told. I have been mulling allsorts over in my head. even building a new facing to the house infront if the existing walls so I do have a cavity and the house will be brickwork instead of render.

I thought about it too, a brickie told me about 8 grand to drop and rebuild the outer skin but a mate of mine built a 2 storey extension on the side of his for not much more.

This thread is a blast from the past! I still haven't re-rendered yet thought it's still on the to do list. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnipper 6,570 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 It's an expensive way to repair the gable but with the family expanding the way it has it needed doing. I'm tempted to keep the big living room for myself though with a fish tank and a no girls allowed policy. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Arry 22,899 Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) Have you considered hanging tiles. Or batten off mesh and redo plaster there by creating a cavity. Next door to me done it as cavity fill was crap and was compromised, it worked a treat. Cheers Arry Edited September 22, 2020 by Arry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
