situation: old coal hole and outside toilet, rear of trad. edwardian red brick terrace.
problem: unevenly jointed brickwork, solid but looks terrible, needs either rendering / pebbledashing / rough casting.
question: can anyone see any major no no's in using aquapanel to cover the brickwork and then a coating of artex Hyclad or similar Weathertex type coating ?
I'm sure there are modern, standard practices and materials for exterior cladding other than rendering, something I'm a bit daunted by having never done more than patching with plaster, but I can't find ay information on the web, probably because I don't know what I'm looking for. catch 22 !
one of the main reasons I'd like to clad the walls, apart from simplicity, is the silicone DPC, if I render, I either have to bridge the DPC (obviously asking for trouble later) or have the render 'floating' an unacceptable height from the floor.
any tips, pointers or clues greatly appreciated
