DIY RENDERING FOR THE FIRST TIME! - Weber Monocouche on the Garage Conversion

The back wall of the old garage has been long overdue a facelift and gave the ideal opportunity to have a go at rendering with a monocouche type render system. This project would definitely be possible as weekend challenge plus a day if using the stipple coat. A few lessons learnt but here is how I got on.

Fab job Tim, you're a brave man, for giving this a go single handed and will surely inspire others to do the same. Looks great from here😁👍

As a plasterer gotta say amazing job? But future reference, when sticking beads on monocouche, always do a continues dab not just here and there! Otherwise its a cracking job

[RobBoFr]

Tim, please take it from us... That is a bloody great job!

“Hindsight with Tim” would make a great series on its own 😅

For a first attempt it looks amazing. I've seen some "professional" jobs look worse.

But I am very similar in my self criticism, I've started making things in leather, mostly for myself, but some work colleagues have asked for some things, which I made, and instead of taking the compliments of how well I made it, I pointed out its little flaws, which no-one but me saw.

That’s an epic job and a fantastic finish considering it’s the first time you’ve attempted it. Hugely impressed Tim 👌🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏼

You did fantastically well doing that job single handedly, the end result looks great and accredit to your endeavours.

Admire it with pride and the satisfying sense of achievement of a job well done.👍

This type of rendering is very common over here in france, same products, tools etc. Fair play doing this on your ownsome! The contractors over here use a super wide screeding float once they've ruled it off to get it really flat, gets rid of any small divets, bumps, imperfections etc, makes the scatching up stage much easier. Your finished results look good and enjoyed your videos

Great job Tim - if staining becomes an issue I recommend ‘wet and forget’. It works very slowly but effectively.

Fantastic Job Tim!, Your work ethic is admirable and you are always courageous enough to have a go and to show us the low's as well as the highs. Well done mate!

Brilliant especially as it wasn't machine applied... you can still include or install your very own under window sill by creating it with a different coloured material, similar colour to the stone required and trowel it on and create it, as its the same material as the rendering it'll all stick together.... you've given me the incentive and inspiration to finally rerender my shed which over 30 years ago I rendered in sand and cement in a brick effect, unfortunately over the past 30 years its shown that s&c is just too brittle.... the product you've used is perfect.... thank you for your inspiration and incentive. Great job.

Don't think you're giving yourself enough credit mate, you're being too hard on yourself. I'm a plasterer of 20 years and I have to say, for a first try... that's a very good job! Not mind for a first try that's a better job than a lot of plasterers I've seen leave. You should be very proud of that job mate it looks great! Fair play to you for giving it a go, most people are afraid to give it a go. Very easy to go wrong and then would be a disaster to get fixed, would cost more than If you got a pro in the first place!! Well done mate great job!!!👍👍

I've recently had a house rendered by a professional company, and I am very pleased. But all in I would say you have do a far thorough job. Top job, exalent video 👍

[tobynewman]

Good job. Just a tip as I use this product quite a lot being a plasterer/renderer. You should have embedded the mesh using the base coat render, then there is less time messing about doing it with the Monocouche. Then just put one big thick coat of the mono on, flatten it in, bar it off and then finally scratch it to finish. Then no worrying about thicknesses.

And yes beading up after doing the case coat is the best method.

[parycash]

Well done mate. You have done well for first timer. Not many people are willing to step in, take it upon themselves, including the stress from the unknown, and finish it to this standard.

[graeme]

Another great video. Quite enjoyed the reflection section as well as the rough costing addition.
BTW... The tea bag in the MUG is a great little touch. Thanks!

[isleofarran]

Brother, you will see for yourself that there's a mishmash of materials.A time to rebuild the glory that can't be seen. Good luck.

[JoeB_BSc]

I opine you have super energy levels. Absolutely brilliant.

[bobw]

Looks great, Its popular here in Canada but with our weather we end up painting it about every 10 years . Love your work,

I’m planning on finishing my new garden wall in render this summer, so this video will be very useful. If it turns out looking half as good as your garage I’ll be well chuffed. 👍
