    K rend to outside wall

    My wall was completed in June last year. I have noticed 4 or 5 small blemishes they are the only ones I can see at my eye level. These blemishes have appeared as small holes, a couple even have a rust coloured appearance. One actually looks like render has fallen off. Any suggestions please. I have sent the Renderer five photos today. He has read my message but not commented in nine hours.
