Over arching

With the kitchen rendering sorted attention then shifts to the entrance to the kitchen from the rest of the house. We cast an arch in concrete and now was the time to make it look nice with a coat of render.

First we added some metal edging strips so that we get nice clean corners and some netting to give the render something to bind to and prevent cracking.

Then it’s just a simple matter of applying the render.  Gradually building up over a couple of days until it’s complete.
