K rend scuffing

[Pocster]

My exterior was K rendered about a year ago . I’ve noticed a few scuffs and assumed it’s where I’ve hit the wall . I no longer think this . Not sure it shows up in the photos . Obviously I could re paint at a later date just surprised how soon it seems to be losing its colour

Needs to all come off and be redone imo.

Should it lose its colour so quick though ?

Always thought k rend should last for years - not 1 year . That wall is on a sheltered side aswell .... ?

Most of the through colour render I have seen does this.

 

Here is some in Brighton 7 years old

 

 

Here it is newly done

Ouch ! . Mines only 1 year old ! . Just repaint then with the appropriate silicon breathable paint ??

The brickwork on the right looks OK though, so you could rebuild in brick.

The worst scuffing on the tower blocks seems to correspond with possible thermal bridges and little around boiler vents (warm-spots).

So I can simply over paint it with the appropriate paint? . Do I need to prep the surface?

We’ve done a few that have just wanted to change the colour

we normally spray ten days before with an anti algae 

Let the rain to the rest

Is K rend difficult to be applied correctly? Just an observation but seems to be a few posts on here about it going wrong.
