Hi,

I’ve looked at other threads but was wondering if someone could give me some more advice.

I’ve got windows that look like this:

What is the best way of finishing the heads and reveals?

I was thinking of fixing a plank to the wall vertically at each reveal as shown below. Then rendering into the reveal up the the edge of the plank.

As for the head, possibly to plastic trim it in white.


Thanks.

Either that or I’ll just cut back the foam, build up the render and then add a plastic trim up the jamb!
 
the batten idea. but don’t nail it it’ll pull more off.
get the wife to hold it while you fill it out and slide it sideways to move to the next one. put some lime in and rub it up with a sponge at the end.
