Hi everyone
I'm after a bit of advice, my house has been undergoing refurbishment and will be finished with Weber Pral M (chalk colour) with Cedar cladding.
I want to do the front wall to match, and will have a low level blockwork wall built with 3 piers, and Cedar slats to make a screen inbetween the piers, something like this (colour will match the chalk render, not grey) -
If I done this in the Weber should it have some waterproofing like coping stones on the tops of the peirs and wall? Something I wanted to avoid.
Alternatively could S+C render, and paint a chalk colour be water resistant enough that I wouldn't need to put coping stones on (could maybe create a slight fall in the render at the tops to allow water run off?)
Any recommendations/ideas/past experience on how to build this wall?
Thanks in advance
