romario Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Due to the delay with planing application change I wasn't able to put the roof before winter. I have exposed Ytong blocks up to the wall plate height. I would like to ask if anyone has any thoughts / recommendations in terms of protecting the walls for the winter from rain / frost to avoid any structural damage. Thank you in advance.

Thank you Russell for your comments. Would you advise to cover from the top of the wall to the bottom or only the top couple rows and window openings?
