been looking at a proberty today its a good price its a row of 6,,,,,, its the end house 50 years old aprox ex council,, but previosly bought,,, the top half of the house is rendered its in poor conditionwere the render as come away it looks as all the brick work is spaled away the depth is apoxx,,,,,, 1 1/2 it looks like frost damage ,, how ever it looks as its been done so the top half of the render comes flush with the bottom half of the house which is brick and the other houses look the same but can not see becase they have the render intact,,,, what can have happened ???? it was easy to see that at the bottom of the house,,, were it was plane brick work i spoted at least 60 spalled bricks about 3/4 inch off,,,, would frost have caused this ??? is it a rebuild or jost render needed
what is the problem with this house

Can you stick some photos up? If the faces have blown it could indicate frost damage/poor batch of brick but if you stick some photos up it would help.
Bad batch of poorly fired bricks.

i think your right it would indicate poor bricks as only the tophalf is rendered which when they stated blowing the council just rendered over,,, as said its blown off approx 1 1/2 which only leaves 3 inch external skin, i don't know but it may require a rebuild ,, in which case i think i will give it a miss
