Hello All, I've decided I just can't live with the vile pebble dashing on the front of my smallish, 2 story house anymore. I just had a quote of just under 5K and whilst I don't think that's outrageous, I just can't afford anything like it. So, (you guessed it), I'd like to have a go at it myself. I'm a painter & decorator by trade and can do most things to a reasonable standard, but never have I done anything like this before.
A place up the road had their PD removed and apart from the big 'hack off' which took them a good while. I noticed they were restoring each brick afterwards with a kind of filler. Would it be reasonable to assume they were using a good quality ext' filler and a powder brick colour dye in it? Then of course they re-pointed.
Any advice and opinions on this will be greatly appreciated. Cheers..
