Hey chaps,
Brand new to the forum, looks like you have some good discussion going on.
I am a mid aged chap from Kent, near tonbridge. Always wanted to have an outdoor kitchen so I got an L shaped area concreted down.
My question is what blocks/bricks to use to build the walls and then render to use to have an end result such as the picture below?
my idea was to use Ytong blocks (maidstone building merchants have them). The pic below looks like sharp edges, are they beads? How to get the texture like that and smooth? Do I need to paint them or comes as white?
any advice will be appreciated! I am a total newbie in this
