How would we straighten this out so that when it is rendered, it is all flush? I found a renderers instagram that this can be done, just not sure how. Would they foam the whole facade except this section?

Then texture the whole lot. If you put foam on the facade you will lose the fascia at the roof line. I'll put your picture below so people can see what you mean.

I spoke to my chippie and he suggested to use a angle grinder and then a honing disk. Also mentioned a hammer drill maybe. Is this what you would think would be the easiest way? I think getting a Jack Hammer would be quite difficult. Re: How to render my facade and have all bricks flush? 5Jan 11, 2022 2:19 pm I'd use a saw (angle grinder or quick cut) to put some vertical cuts in the raised section of bricks.
