    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    Nope. The idiot who did it is now trying to say the bill was 10,800 and not the 8,500 Agreed and has counter claimed for more money. Waiting for a court date...

    It’s difficult getting anyone local to put anything in writing.

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    I don’t suppose there is anyone on here that is local ish to Southampton that would be willing to come and have a look and write a report on what they see the issues are? I don’t mind paying. I just need something in black/white to add to the evidence for a small claims.

    I have so much evidence I’m hoping we do!

    You wouldn’t believe the barrage of messages from him. He’s now trying to put words in our mouths against each other I have just about had enough

    I just hope we get our money back.

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    We are still being asked to pay the remaining balance I’m so angry. It’s like he doesn’t even see there is a problem!

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    That’s exactly my worry, I’ve since found out he folded a previous company and this is a new one with a slightly different name. I did pay the money into his personal account though, not business account. I’m not sure if that means I can claim from him directly

    God no, I’m just not sure where I stand legally yet.

    I really can’t say, not yet. I feel I can’t do that if we get a refund.

    3000 from the original quote and 1000 extra to remove and redo

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    I know he must be out of pocket doing it twice, but I didn’t want it doing twice in the first place. I just wanted a nice finish. We have £3000 left to pay him which isn’t going to get it redone.... We also have someone coming to give us a quote to clean up the patio, god knows how much that...

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    I will see what Wezly says when he comes over. The guy isnt going to give me any money back at all as he says he’s out of pocket doing it twice. I begrudge even paying£5500 for what I have been left with so I’m thinking court is the only option at this point.

    I have wezly coming over next week to give us a quote to redo. He has another week to respond to our request for a refund and money to remove what’s currently on there.

    Ok so the scaffold is down. Could I please have thought and opinions as to wether this is a 8and half grand finish? I genuinely don’t know if this is the kind of finish expected

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    Do you really have to be quite so offensive? I’ve had four months of stress and paid a lot of money for the privilege. I always try to see the best in people and think everyone deserves a second chance. I’ve given written notice to finish the work and I’m doing the right things now...

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    Can I ask what you charge a square metre. I keep thinking maybe the people I chose did it cheaper because it wasn’t a top quality finish.

    Not far at all then. The company I used is from Portsmouth.

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    It’s now been over a week since the renderers have finished and nothing has been cleaned up bar the 3 first floor windows, my husband had to do the first floor door as the Juliette balcony was being refitted. We sent an email last Friday giving them 7 days to complete the job or we would find...

    To be honest the finish does look better than before, I can’t see the rippling affect all day like I could before.

    Did all of that the first time and the guy was full of assurances,”wanted to put it right” “wanted happy customers” but then what he says and does are on completely different pages...

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    Go on tell me what you would do.....I’m living in complete mess, treading through the house crap everyday, outside lights been disconnected for over a month. Have fallen down the steps on a couple of occasions as it’s pitch black, endless arguments with my husband. It’s kept me awake at night...

    I don’t really feel I can as I don’t know what we are doing with regards to the money we still owe

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    Nope still not sorted. Rendering done but hard to tell how the finish is as the scaffold still up. Not entirely happy with the window reveals but don’t know if I’m being too picky. Windows still covered in rock hard render. Patio covered in stains and waiting to see if it can be removed...

    Because we had Weber first and was told it’s a harder product to work with and would get a better finish with krend

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    To be fair the colour looks much closer in shades now so could be fine in a few more weeks. I still hate the bar in the middle and hate that I had to have k rend. Still waiting for the mess to be cleaned up so will wait and see what damage is left.

    Any builder could just fold his business and start again then we would have been left with even worse than we have now

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    I honestly can’t go through it all being hacked off and redone. It’s 4 months down the line. It’s an improvement on the last job although I never wanted the krend as I don’t like the sparkly bits. I just want the scaffold down and my home back. Thanks all for your advice

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    I’ve come home to the rendering almost finished on the rear of the house. I’m happier with it. Looks a lot straighter.:-) only bit I hate is the expansion bar I’m told was needed in the middle. Looks like two houses. Now just to wait for the scaffold down to see If the dreaded scaffold line can...

    House been rendered in Weber - advice wanted

    I’ve had a rep out who say they can’t comment on workmanship but it’s not a problem with the product. I’ve had an approved guy look at it and he just laughed mostly.... the new krend job is a couple of days from completion. We’ve only paid £5500 of what we owe so still have money held back.
