The concrete lintel above my daughter window has blown out, due, probably to water ingress that has rusted the steel reinforcing bar causing it to rust and expand.
How can I repair this and get it looking like new again (or as near as possible)?
I have seen patch repair stuff at Wickes and wondered if this would be strong enough.

If the rebar has rusted to the extent that the concrete has blown I'd suggest replacing it completely.
