Hi all

I’ve an awful block wall in the back garden, and it’s long. So I was thinking of dressing it up on different ways - a different one for each zone as an example. Cladding, render etx.

I was wondering what methods there are to attach brick to the block wall. It’s a 2m wall with a standard concrete coping on top.

Thanks all.

Thanks for that. I had read about the two options you suggested.
Would you know the pros and cons

- cost
- ease of installation etx.

Thanks again.
