when tackling an old, damp london stock brick wall, what is the best way to prep the wall before rendering? I am afraid any render will simply crack or not stick properly to the wall. Would painting PVA followed by a scratch coat containing waterproofer do the trick?
cheers

p.s. the pointing is pretty crumbly also
