Hi people, new here so take it easy on me LOL.
I've been reading through a few threads regarding rendering. But I haven't as yet answered my question!!
I have a grade 2 listed house with an unfortunate and badly finished comb effect render finish. I wish to flatten it off with a skim. The existing render does have a long crack. but it hasn't got worse in a couple of years, and it isn't blown.
My business is interior home improvement, so I have basic plastering knowledge at best, usually skiming a small area is my limit. I don't need the wall to be perfectly flat as it is a peiod property!!so I might give it a go
Cutting to the chase!! What should I use, and what mix. Ultimately what prep should I do to existing render.
If I was to pay to get this done , what would I be looking at??
6m x 2 story . minus two large windows and front door, LOL
Many thanks for your time!!
