Renovating a tudor style house. Where render between exposed beams external.

Chippy wants to chop few panels out and ply them ready for eml sand cement.
What are your thoughts?
Previously i used some kind woodchip board and eml. Not sure what it was.

Surely screwing into ply will splt the board.and too smooth!
 
Hi Dan

Not all render boards have the ability to take a layer of S&C (due to weight)

Aquapanel Exterior can take a 10mm layer of S&C on the outside of a 5mm layer of basecoat and mesh applied first....... sometimes difficult to get a good finish with just 10mm of S&C though...

Get in touch if you want more info.

Feck. sake lordy !!!!! I was gonna say that.:RpS_angry:....:RpS_lol:
is a thin coat on AQUAPANEL!!! an option dansouthcoast ?
 
What basecoat would you recommend rich? I will definatly phone for advice in a week or two. What i need to know now tho is thickness of the board and what basecoat to carry sand cement or lime?

Thanks bud
 
Hi Dan

Aquapanel Exterior is 12.5mm thick

Basecoat could be from any of our approved suppliers. FYI - K Rend HPX and Parex maite are used with their scratch coats on boards, so good start....

One of the first jobs we did in the UK with Aquapanel Exterior was a new build with mock tudor effect - they only used a basecoat and smoothed it out and painted once dry. Most basecoats are not very smooth, but exterior grade paints are usually applied thick and give a smoother finish

Give me a call bud - doing Timber Expo Tuesday and Wednesday this week, so either Monday or from Thursday morning (07918766577 or [email protected])

CCF Portsmouth and Encon Fareham stock and supply down you way (others as well I expect, but know they do)

you could also (if the joiner has used ply sheets) fix roofing felt the same as you find on shed a shed roof and overlap the joints (obviously) and eml over that using screws and penny washers for a better fix? its a bit of a FAFF but it works fine. hope all goes well for you pal
 
Sorry McFatarm..... bit quick for ya! lol

Lucky I am on at the mo - sod all on the idiot box..... LOL

i can feel some sexual tension at the moment between you too..........:RpS_wub:...........just a shame Rich is ON or some slap and tickle might have been on the cards McFatarm.............................:RpS_thumbup:
