Hi everyone.
Got a garden wall to render but the brick layer has had to do some extensive work to repair after removing old render.
Just wondered how long new brick walls should be left to dry before rendering?
I should know this but in twenty years I've never had to render over a new wall!!... Lol

New builds, a few days. A few weeks then to do it properly.... Lol
I just don't want the wall settling and causing the render to crack.
The time to wait then makes me decide if it does need to wait till April... Lol
It's going to be a sand and cement render by the way
 
I’d just crack on mate ,it will probably be lying on the patio this time next year .if it’s a garden wall
 
Cover it once meshed scratch is on and cover after top coat to protect from rain and frost
