Hi, just in the final stages of having our house built & we have an issue with the render. It seems they have used some type of acrylic render that just gets painted onto the bricks so not like cement render which is cemented & then painted. The problem being is it's very patchy. The supervisor is insisiting that this is the nature of using acrylic render & that we accepted & signed off on using this type. Which we did do, but I know fuck all about render. I just assumed it would be the cement type which looks much smoother and cleaner. This render looks really patchy and irregular. I guess if you were a salesmen you'd call it rustic or tuscan.. Anyway not sure where I stand. I signed off on it, but I thought render was render i.e painted cement? Can I make the building company redo it? Or are you supposed to specify what type of render you want.

It looks worse that the picture show, especially when it's not sunny.
