Johnstone's silicone render

[Theartofstu]

Hi,

Having the house rendered, I've stopped them for the moment as this is the finish. 1.5mm silicone. It was finished about 5 days ago in this picture.
There's a light layer of crumble on most of it.
Thoughts?

Much obliged, panicking homeowner.

That is the base coat. it has a primer then the finish.

Phew! My other half told me it was the finish as they were only doing one coat of sand & cement! Been confirmed its still undercoat, apparently the bricks were awful and needed an extra layer. Sorry to bother you all and thanks for the reassurance

Going forward; always talk to your tradesman if you want any explanation of process etc. it really will save you looking a t**t having asked about their work elsewhere. Most trades are more than happy to talk about what they're doing if you ask in the right way.
