    Hi all, I have received a specification from Parex for the re-render of a large part of a house (after removing the existing sand and cement) and wondered if anyone had any comments on it and would be interested in quoting for the work in Surrey. The substrate is concrete block with some red...

    K Rend or Weber

    I’ve recently had a new porch built and with the walls inside the porch now being plastered (previously bare brick) it’s become apparent how bad our rendering is, as every time it rains, the new plaster is soaked from water getting in. We’re now looking at knocking the current rendering off...

    Parex over sand and cement scratch coat?

    Hi this is my first post on here. I'm on a job where the customer wants parex finish on the exterior. The existing is that horrible reconstructed stone, I'm think sand and cement scratch coat the lot to get a nice flat surface then fix plastic beads and apply parex as you would normally over...

    Hi all, New to the forum and not a professional. Not even a DYIer, just researching for my house project. Extending the property plus re-rendering it. We had penetrating damp problems on an external wall (bricks, no cavity) which used to be covered with pebbledash. No obvious cracks and...

    Parex Monorex fail

    Hello All. I am a general builder and undertook an over render to a house in Plymouth. The existing render was solid so it was agreed to use monorex over the top. At the time the only available primer from Parex was Microgobetis 2000. The walls were cleaned and prepared and then a coat of...
