My partners gable end has bowed inwards due to the heat from the chimney. Rather than re-brick from the soffit's upwards I'm going to attempt to render to cure the problem. This will be my first attempt at rendering (I've done odd plastering jobs) so any advice is welcome.
How thick can render be applied? What's the best ratio's for first and second coats? How long should be left between coats? What's best for finishing the bottom edge? How do I work out quantities? I have a float, hawk, straight edge; anything else needed?
Thanking you in advance guys
