Types of render

michaelsimpson25 · 21 Sep 2005

I\\\'m currently looking for a new house with my wife. We have seen a nice one we like but its brickwork and it looks a bit tatty. I was thinking of rendering over it so my question is what types of render are there or is that a stupid question? I want to stay there a long time if we move so I want something that is going to last a very long time. Do some types of render last longer than others and whats the difference in cost?

brick is better than render and you may need planning permision to render it, in some cases rendering will knock thousands off the price of your property. there are guarantees on any product but it all comes down to whoes using them.

There are actually three types of reindeer. Marine, Tundra and Forest. They vary in size, and density of coat. They all have the distinction that both the male and female have antlers. In other species of deer it is only the male that has them.

But seriously, there are better ways to treat brickwork than render it. If you clean it and repoint it, even the most apalling looking brickwork can generally be revitalised.

And if you dont like the colour you can get brick dye
