I need to bring a section of an external corner of my bay window out (build it up) so that it’s flush with the other walls and so that the corner line runs vertically in a straight line matching the rest of the corner.
See pictures below – the lower part of the wall was plastered/rendered really badly.... and I need to make it flush again. The light coming through at the bottom shows how “concave” the wall is. It’s over an inch or more deep at the deepest part.
The other picture shows the straight pencil line (faintly) of how the corner should run so that is in line with the rest of the corner above it.
I’m wondering what’s the best process to do this..... run string top to bottom and build it up?
And what’s the best stuff to use for the job? Bonding....? Hardwall? Or something else? Should I PVA it before?
The grey wall is a totally waterproof old damp course I think – really tough!
Many thanks everyone!
(Oh... and I understand that the new straight corner probably won’t meet the corner of the skirting right at the bottom.... I think I’ll need a bit of creativity at that point.... )
