Hi all
I few years ago I went halves with the neighbour to sort out a retaining wall that was in a bad shape....Its sorted structurally but the render is in a bit of a state. Mainly because there is earth up against the wall. The render while not comming away or anything is just green, paint peels off and it just looks a bit of a state etc. So as its us that facing the wall I was thinking of getting some of that split faced tile .......all down the length of wall to hopefully sort it out for a good while at least. It would look smarter
The root cause is just dampness but theres not much that can be done about that now. The only think I can think of is tanking the wall in its entirity first and then tiling to give a nice finish??? Would that work do you think - I will get good flexible adhesive. I dont fancy slate as that cant be difficult getting a good bond but something that just sticks and stays there
Ill have to ask if its OK to do as technically its their wall but I dont mind doing their side either as not mcuh wall showing above their ground level
Any tips and advice appreciated
