Hi,
I’m not in the trade business at all, and I’m just on here looking for advice what’s best to render the retaining wall pictured.
The wall hasn’t been damp proofed at all before back filling, only a drain pipe with gravel was put for drainage.
As you can see from the photos, damp does come through as expected, but what would be the best option for a smooth, white finish, and last the longest? Krend? Sand and cement then paint it? Weberend LAC and then painted?
I don’t mind having to paint every few years! Just want the best options after noting protecting the soil side from damp.
Coping stones will be placed on top of the wall. What would your solutions be?
Any suggestions/advice would be greatfully received.
Thanks,
Rhodri
