should I make a claim?

The rendering at the back of my house, above the bathroom window has become loose and flakie and the brick work underneath appears to have seen better days. This is probably due to weather damage. The loose render is also effecting the iside of the walls too. The inside plaster is starting to crack, so the damp must be getting through. Does anyone think that it is worth putting in a claim (Kwik-Fit) or would I be wasting my time?

I have included a link to a picture of the wall.

Thanks,

    Always worth a try, but it looks like wear and tear.

    You could be lucky - but tbh I think you would be more likely to be wasting your time.
