How to Chip Off / Remove Render DOUBLE THE SPEED!!!

[@alastairstott6523]

GreAt help. I did it with 115mm grinder and cross hatched. This allowed the hammer to just pop off each ‘block’.

[@MattHutton]

Awesome!

[@DerekTJ]

Even better. I've awful 1949 loopy stipple render to remove and this sounds good.

[@bigbigsky8878]

Looks like a good technique to get the worst of it off, what did you do to get that remainder off? Same tools and technique?

[@darrengreen2265]

It's a 9" angle grinder with a diamond tip blade👍

[@tumbleweed7260]

Haha i was saying it for him as well, camera nerves make ur brain go dead

[@cocospops9351]

Great tip m8. I have a lovely stone house that some bastard put pebble dash all over and I want it all gone. Also have block extension with pebble dash, can I just render over that do you know?

[@cocospops9351]

@Brit Mk 2 No I want to know if I can render over the pebble dash, as in not remove it at all and render on to it.

[@cocospops9351]

@Brit Mk 2 Thanks mate. Already stripped sand cement plaster from the interior walls and repointed all the stone work with lime 👌 Going for a full and authentic restoration.

[@joejoejoejoejoejoej]

Great idea I thought the same process ….. One suggestion …… would an SDS comb blade be better than a plain blade ?

[@NoizPuhr]

The pebble dash I'm trying to remove is a bastard to get off

[@MattHutton]

You might be able to render over it.

[@NoizPuhr]

The thing is though I'm trying reveal bricks underneath it because I think the pebble dash looks shit

[@MattHutton]

arthur callahan managed to reveal any cleanly so far?

[@NoizPuhr]

Some but the bottom is getting thinner and the jack hammer is just skimming the rest of it

[@MattHutton]

arthur callahan I would have thought it would be very difficult to get a clean exposed brick finish after render has been on top. But good luck. Let me know how it goes :)

[@a1p2b32]

wall chaser would have been better for scoring because you can set the depth

[@NANDOFFDataRecovery]

Thanks buddy the theory makes sense, think you might have saved me some stress.

[@jonathanmcrae3728]

Would u recommend using same method on pebble dash. Mine seems thicker though.

[@MattHutton]

Worth a go. If the pebble dash isn’t painted you may be able to render straight over the top. I’d ask a renderer if pebble dash provitamins sufficient key.

[@plummetplum]

Good tip.

[@MattHutton]

Glad you liked it

[@conscientiousobjector9555]

Wow! Great job.

[@lariyo9122]

Any issues with doing this on a wet day? Been doing on my day off and the rain won't stop

[@MattHutton]

Water will absorb into the brick but shouldn’t be an issue if it’s not exposed for too long.

[@tomtresco2952]

Oh yeah that looks well easy

[@squidlings]

Haha, i get the technique but you made it look harder with "fault lines" gonna go try this now. Got a nightmare job on my house. One i wish i didnt start now i know how tough it is. 😶

[@MattHutton]

It is a pain in the arse

[@squidlings]

@@MattHutton your trick worked really well...but once i got a good chunk off...everything just started to fall easily. 💪🏻

[@MattHutton]

Squidlings good stuff :)

[@crocusinmaymay2835]

@@MattHutton What do you do to repair the damaged / scarred bricks ?

[@MattHutton]

crocusinmay may render over the top with fresh render

[@JustinGreenwoodDelgado]

I like your vids and advice but please get a cheap tripod

[@scotturley4003]

Wow, that job sucks anyway you have it

[@BigCheese85]

Are those tampons in your ears??

[@MattHutton]

Yes

[@ljd8520]

Why were you removing the render? So that the wall can be re rendered?

[@MattHutton]

Yes, because additional brick work was added and I didn’t like the look of the old render

[@ljd8520]

@@MattHutton were the bricks laid on a new footing or off a steel angle bolted to the wall ?

[@mrboyban]

Still a pretty hard job mate

[@Southpoint2019]

Don’t worry Matt these ignorant comments are from people who prob work in Tesco and get about 300 a week whilst you get to pick your jobs and customers all year and get about 800 per week minimum.

Your comment shows you're more ignorant than the people you are bitching about. Smh

@@Southpoint2019 You're very likely not earning 60k+ on the tools mate. No offence but I've heard it all day for years and it's rarely true. Same guys who say this have finance cars usually lol.

[@Ineedahandle75]

Hmm.

[@sherwin1988]

Forget this mate just render over it! 😂 also the wall would have already been reasonable flush 👍

[@plummetplum]

Rendering over paint needs proper prep, What's your recommendation?

[@sherwin1988]

Pva the fuck out of it and move house within 24 months of the job 😂😂
