DIY Rendering need some advice

[Mitchq98]

I’ve done a bit of plastering on my own house but now I’m going to attempt to do a bit of rendering.

What’s the best way to go about rendering this part of my house. I know I need to fill some of the big crevices, especially above the window where it just crumbled.

Just need some advice on what mix to use and best way to render around the window. Also the corner of the house in some parts has a really thick layer of render, what’s the best way to build the layers up on the corner to match the depth.

Do I need to use mesh in the scratch coat?

Have you wondered why the render failed?
It’s because the house is falling down.
House is death trap.
Well I’m exaggerating a little but the brickwork that looks shot, get a survey done.
Should've fitted a new house before fitting new windows
All the render needs to come off I’m sorry to say and substrate made stable before putting anything back on
