Cheers mate, I've dropped you an email.

Hi, Need a quote for a 3 bed semi. Not sure if I should go wit K Rend or Parex so any advice would be helpful. Based in Bradford, area to be covered is approx 90sqm but would need to be checked. Cheers.

Whys that mate? Also, is there anyone on here based in the Yorkshire area that could do this job?

Do we have a rep from @K Rend on the forum?

Thanks for the input guys. It’s safe to say with that information don’t think I will be using him. Found someone that will be carrying out the full process including the base and meshing.

It’s all brick.

Not my house mate, a customer. I'm doing all the research before I give the job as it's a lot of money to be spent.

Didn't take any pics of the work just seen it in person. He's saying that a base coat wouldn't be needed on all walls.

He was a recommendation, seen some of this work too. However, he tried telling me that a base coat wouldn't be needed as he's applying with a machine! Sounded a little sus to me hence why I've asked the question on here.

I'd like to clue myself up on here before I start with the questions. He could be telling me anything and I wouldn't know any different!

Hi lads, What is the normal process for applying a silicone based render from K Rend? Someone is willing to do the job using a machine but I'm wanting to know if a base coat and mesh would still be needed when applying with a machine?

Isn't a forum a place to come ask the experts for an unbiased opinion instead going to people or tradesmen that will push a product they get the best deal on or try to sell themselves as the best thing since sliced bread??

I want the best job with the best product! Everyone I have spoken to is talking about K Rend and everyone on here is recommending Parex.

So whats the difference between scratch and silicone?

Everyone I've had quotes from have told me that K Rend (silicone based) is the better product. Conflicting information being given. Is Parex a scratch render?
