What the client wanted

To stop the property looking neglected from the road, and to deal with the damage before it got worse.

The challenge

Devon weather. The work had to be sequenced around dry spells, and several areas needed repair before anything could be applied over them.

How we solved it

We prepared in stages so that whenever the weather allowed, there was always a section ready to be finished, rather than losing whole days to rain.

What we did

  • Full external inspection and preparation
  • Repairs to damaged areas
  • Surface preparation and making good
  • Exterior decoration
  • Carpentry repairs
  • Final inspection
