No that lovely smooth white/cream stuff that looks lovely

What is the outside like now? Render gets dirty and scruffy and needs regular repainting - if your house is brick or stone it may not look quite as lovely, but it won't need maintaining.

Breeze blocks with existin holes bricked up and new holes cut in

I am converting a modern agricultural barn into a nursery (maybe)

We had a quote to have our house re-rendered. This invlolved taking off existing render, and applying new render.
House is detached, 2 storey. Not huge, not sure of sq m though.
The quote that we had was £5000 (gulp)!
Decided against that, and went for a repair job and a repaint - much cheaper!

Youch - that's a lot

Hmmm

Yeah, as I said we only had one quote, so not atall sure if that is representative or fair.

Thanks - I guess it will be expensive (I won't have the chipping off to do)

We are having our house rendered (first floor only), but for various reasons, he is doing it in sections and charging a day rate of £250 for him and his mate... I think it will probably cost us a couple of grand all in, but depends where you live.
