Absolutely top class , no cowboy hats here , proper tradesmen
👍
A few questions on your great video...
(1) What mix did you use for the base and final coat?
(2) What sealer did you use for the brick work after you had taken the old render off? and
(3) how did you secure the edge beads to the chimney stack?
Many thanks
Proper job , looks great!
hazardous work. well done.
Thank you, very kind. Sometimes it has to be done 👍
You made that look easy. nice job
👍 Very kind, thank you for your comment
Awesome video- thanks! We’re buying our first house and have to do exactly this to our chimney. Roughly what could you expect to pay, for a job like this?
A builder messed up my chimney stack rerender , the top coat just crumbled off. The scratch cost also has some cracks and is not sound everywhere . Is it better to have all the scratch coat removed and start again or just remove the unsound parts , it gets wild weather , gets very windy here and driving rain. I would like it to last . Also how many hours of labour does it take to rerender a single chimney stack , so roughly how much does it cost ? Thanks
Might be a dumb question, but why do chimneys need to be rendered in the first place?
Not at all, it’s mainly for decorative purposes 👍
Great post, just subscribed what bonding agent did you use? Thank you
Exterior pre grit by bond it 👍
Hi Just wondering what primer you used Thanks
Thank you for this helpful video . May I ask what the primer was please? PVA I assume but some apply SBR ?
Hi Anthony Skilton, thank you for your comment and the external bonding agent I used was called EXTERNAL PREGRIT by bond it
Working at hight regs says go straight to jail . Don’t collect 200£ if you pass go
Now do this for plastering
Thanks for you comment.....I think I will 👍
Hi. Any chance you can do my chimney too! Exactly the same job as this video. I'm in Hertfordshire - scaffolding is up already! Please get in touch. Thanks. Dave
Hi Dave Spencer. Thanks for the enquiry, I haven’t got any availability at present although I imagine you probably have it sorted now 👍
Nice job guys what is your mixes for both coats and additives cheers
Cheers rock&roll45....4 and 1 with waterproofer for scratch, 5, 1,1 (lime) with waterproofer for top. 👍
Plastering Guru cheers bud👍👍👍
It would be really good to have these ratios and your product brands highlighted ie, why use plastering sand and not building sand? First time diy'ers, like myself, need spoon feeding but otherwise a very helpful video, thank you.

Does 5,1,1, = 5 sand + 1 cement + 1 lime?
If so, why add the lime? And why not keep the same mix as the scratch? (I am guessing the scratch is the strongest)
What bonding agent did you use for the beads?
Thanks for your question Simon Clark..I used Sticks like turbo by Evo stik, great stuff!
Good job, did you not want to add a drip to the top when you did the flaunching? (I am learning) thank you!

I dont see the point of wearing dust masks in your other vids then do something so dangerous...... good work though......👍
Hi si b, thanks for your comment. You’re not wrong....in fact the next chimney I do will definitely be scaffolded. 👍
