Hi guys,
I am a new self-builder, so I was wondering has anyone any insight into this? I was thinking if I render directly over the cement board onto the blockwork above it would eventually crack because the cement board would move differently to the blockwork
So would lapping the transition between the two materials with reinforcing mesh like the one I have applied onto the cement board sort this problem? If so will I have to screw the mesh into the blockwork above?
Thanks, Kieren
