I hadn't thought so.
Is that a thing?The render is a scabby crumbling mess. The brickwork underneath probs won't come out of it well if we strip it off so we are just looking to net it over and scratch and skim.

Our brick work is, to put it kindly, fucked. We're getting these chaps - https://www.eco-rend.co.uk/ - to put up 100mm insulation, with aluminium sills over the concrete sills, and then about a cm of rendercoat over the top. I think it'll come to about £7k, but should stop penetrating damp, and improve our insulation hugely. Also, the VAT is only 5%, rather than 20%, as it's an insulation product...

I think is a video of the installation of what we are having done.

Are you wanting to insulate it at the same time? I might do if so...
