Professional opinions required on render finish

[Deleted member 93334]

Can anyone tell me if this finish is to an acceptable standard please? The finish was supposed to be a float finish. Most photos taken on cloudy days but there is glancing light in the one of the rear of the house. Photo was taken from approx 2om away not zoomed in. What appears to be a water mark above the door is patching up photo also taken from approx 20m away not zoomed in.

He used it as a straight edge first.

Apparently that is what it is yes but i requested a float finish. I didn't know much about render but I'm doing my research.

I specified a float finish. The contractor changed the specification of the product. I wasn't aware that it wasn't a float finish product until now...

He will probably argue that silicone render is finished with float by most people.

Tut tut Dave, you know full well that all threads on TPF are 100% genuine.

Who knows it doesn’t surprise me Andy I doubt the customers getting anything from it unless they just want an idea of what a shite thin coat job looks like
It’s a weird one let the plot thicken ……

It's got the Mediterranean feel about it. Grow a couple of Olive trees in large pots in front of it. Don't have any outside lights (uplighter or downlighters) get some nice clay pots. Maybe grow a creeper up it?
