Old roughcast house options?

Posted by Stuart Stevenson, on
Hi there, We are about to move into a fixer-upper bungalow. Was an old lady in it previously so it has a lot of work needing done inside and out. My question today is about the exterior. It’s currently rough cast with cracks and small patches missing. What are the best oprions to do the outside up? Is removing it all and rendering it the best? We’d be keen to insulate the house as much as possible so if any of the options also provide external insulation that would be amazing!
