On my veranda, which was built with Leca blocks, the craftsmen plastered with Weber Putsbruk C. It's about 15 years old. It is well-drained, so moisture isn't coming from below.

Now it has come off and looks terrible. There are hollow spots in several places.

Why?

What is the best thing to do now?

Grateful for tips.
 
  • Cracked and damaged plaster on a 15-year-old Leca block wall with missing sections, revealing issues on steps. Seeking advice for repair solutions.
  • Old plastered facade with peeling surface and efflorescence, featuring a metal plate and a black drainage pipe, surrounded by gravel at the base.
P
It comes off because it's wrongly plastered from the beginning, plaster mix C is too poor against the ground..
On Leca, you should prime with base plaster A and then use plaster mix B as the lowest quality against the ground..

Then I would recommend netting the plaster to increase the strength, but it's not a requirement for the Leca stone…
