Render is the sand and cement layer on that wall. We cut the failed render away. We build the area back in sand and cement. The repaired wall sheds rain again. ### Hollow render on an Andover house We tap the outside walls of the house in Andover. We mark each patch that sounds hollow. Blown render is coat that has parted from the brick underneath. The face of that coat can still look whole. We open cracks that are still fixed to the wall. We clean those cracks so rain cannot run in behind them. ### Firm brick under failed render in Andover We take the loose render off the wall in Andover. We stop where the coat around the hole still grips the brick. We brush the open brick clear of dust. We wet that brick so the new coat sticks. We cover the windows, the doors and the ground beneath the repair before any mixing starts. ### Sand and cement on an Andover patch We lay sand and cement on the bare brick in coats. We level each coat with a straight edge until it meets the render that stayed. A deep area starts with a scratch coat. A scratch coat is combed while soft so the following coat locks into the grooves. The final face copies the render still on the wall, smooth or textured. ### Corners and the foot of an Andover wall We rebuild chipped corners on the wall in Andover so they run straight. We rebuild a broken reveal in the same way. A reveal is the side return of a window or a door. A metal bead gives that corner its straight edge. A bead is the metal strip fixed on the corner. The new coat finishes in a clean line along the foot of the wall. ### Scaffold for high render in Andover We put scaffold up when the failed render is too high to reach from the ground. Scaffold is the temporary frame that gives a place to stand while the coats go on. The high part of the wall in Andover is repaired from that frame. A low area on the wall does not need scaffold. The frame comes down after the new face has been levelled. ## External rendering repair questions in Andover ### Do you do External rendering repair in Andover?
