The drying time for rendering or plastering depends on several factors, including the type of material used, the thickness of the application, and environmental conditions such as humidity and temperature. Generally, rendering can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to fully dry, while plastering typically dries within 24 to 48 hours. It's essential to allow adequate drying time before painting or applying any finishes.

Rendering and plastering are both techniques used to cover and protect walls, but they serve different purposes. Rendering is typically applied to external walls to provide weatherproofing and aesthetic enhancement, while plastering is primarily used for interior walls to create a smooth finish for painting or wallpapering.

Rendering and plastering can be applied to most surfaces, including brick, block, concrete, and plasterboard. However, proper surface preparation is crucial to ensure adhesion and a smooth finish.

For a more luxurious look, natural stone tiles like marble or travertine can add elegance to your space, although they require more maintenance.

Grout colour can significantly impact the overall look of your tiled surface. For a seamless appearance, you can opt for a grout color that closely matches the colour of your tiles. Alternatively, contrasting grout colors can create a striking visual effect and highlight the individual tiles. It's essential to consider factors such as the size of the tiles, the desired aesthetic, and the level of maintenance you're comfortable with when choosing the grout colour.
