Can these be repaired or do we need to replace the render? How much is a job like that likely to cost (2 storey, semi detached double fronted house approx 12 meters wide) - ballpark figures would be helpful - I don't even know if it's hundreds or thousands! Also as slightly stupid question but is render coloured? The house is a cream colour and it doesn't look like it's been painted as there is no flaking - or could it be some alternative coating has been used (it's smooth not rough) Thanks for any advice you can offer. You have been given some good information by,Bayley Property Sevices & N Louth Plastering, I would take all render of as, if you patched it, it would always show no matter how good the plasterer is.

I would use a SBR slurry and paint on wall prior to applying the scratch coat. Done one similar to this not long ago, 2days hacking of, 2&1 gang rendering 3days, 3 coats masonry paint cost approx £2300 The scaffold was £360 but varies in different areas.

The render on your house has cracked due to a number of reasons, it could of been done in poor weather, or not enough mechanical key. In my experience you can take of the damaged parts and patch in, but personally I would take it all off and start again, making sure that a good key is achieved in the scratch coat (1st coat of render). Also this scratch coat should contain a waterproofing in it too.

As for colored render, yes this is possible but only in darker colors and it is hard to get a consistent color. If you are after color render you could have it done in K-rend or monochouche these are a re pre mixed render similar to plaster and can be in applied in either by hand or by machine. Personally sand cement render with a touch of lime added is as good as anything its cheaper but you will need to paint it after say with a sandtex paint which is micro porous, this lets the wall breathe thus stopping it from cracking and allowing movement hence why we add lime.

As for price your looking at an average of about £16 to £20 per sq meter. Hi There are a few things to look for, Are the cracks all joined together? When u tap the render where it is cracked does it sound hollow? If the answer to the above is yes then it will probably need to be removed as it is not adhered to the substrate (background) This is due to a number of things The background was not prepared properly ie not dampened down, no PVA applied, mortar joints not raked out etc, It was applied in too warm a condition so it dried to quickly or applied in too cold condition and the frost effected the curing and subsequently caused the cement to fail and hence has no strength. The topping coat is a stronger mix than the scratch coat which means the base coat willl be able to flex, expand more than the top coat and again cause the top coat to crack and come away from the wall, The mix altogether is to weak, If it is old render and seems solid it could be just cracks from movement off the property over the years but if the surveyer has stated it is a poor job I doubt this to be the case.
