We had an outside wall rendered last summer(25ft x 12ft), after about 6 months it started coming away at the top, now its flaking even more, the guy who did it cant be contacted so i'm going to have a go repairing it myself. What kind of plaster/sand etc do i need and how do you seal the top of the wall (i think that is the problem, water getting between the rendering and the bricks). Thanks

the only way i know to seal the top of the wall is to put coping stones on the top.
the problem is as you've identified (the water and the frost)
