The front of my house at first floor level is timber stud, originally lath and plaster with a patch or 10 using EML and then the last botch which is purely cosmetic.
I need to strip back to the stud so I can insulate from outside because the inside is actually very good.

Please could you tell me the correct method of re rendering. the last one I saw done was ply'ed then had a paper like membrane then EML then two coat 4 to 1 then 5 to 1 if I remember correctly.

The most stable method is the way I would like to go as I am planning on staying here for a while.


The area is about 8m wide by 3m high with a large bell out at the bottom.

regards

Any ideas, I probably should have said that it is timber frame with a render finish, if that makes it more understandable.

Ply, Membrane, eml and then use a bagged render which has flexible properties because it will move and it will crack because of where it is.

Cheers lads, I didn't know the stuff existed, I will sort a local stockist and try an have a read up on it. In the mean time what ply and membrane would you use.
It's weird but I just cant remember what we used and it was the last extension I did about 6 yrs ago,

minsters insulation are a good source of this stuff.

I would use the cheapest breather membrane what is stiff enough to do the job.
