Stockton on tees mate

Very true, thats why Im asking is £600 cheap so is it expected to be a cowboy job. Is £600 too much and should it have been perfect ? For the area and material used what would be a reasonable estimate in your opinion

What would i be looking at as an estimate. 35m2 sand and cement + beads. I had a quote for parex and it was over £4k which i thought was extortionate but maybe this is the goin rate.

Brill thanks for the help

Thanks Malc, Whats the ratio of each part please ?

£600 materials and labour. Done in a day 3 lads

Brill thanks

Cheers Tom, Would this give a smooth finish, Would it have to be re-beaded ?

Unfortunately i must have had the slap dash 1 day lads. Just gutted it happened to me.

It was all completed in one day. 35m2 of render + beading

Unfortunately yes. I work away and left it to the misses. Big mistake

Any suggestions to rectify?

Thanks for any recommendations, can i possibly get some one to put another coat over it ?

Here is some photos i had on my phone. Maybe it’s acceptable, It just looks a bad finish to me as i was hoping for a smoother finish

Thanks for your reply. I will post some pics when i return home. I think it has set. Would you recommend knocking off ?. I was hoping to use a sanding stone if possible.

Hi Guys, Im new to this site and not a plasterer but looking for some help on a wall ive had rendered. Ive just had a garden wall rendered with sand and cement and when i got home from work to see my new walls i found lots of large “swirl” marks in the render. (Almost like a very light artex job...
