Job Description

I live in Bow E3. My front door steps are original york stone leading up to a victorian terrace. There are five steps about 4 ft wide. What was the old coal hole underneath is now leaking. I use it for storage and the electric and gas meters are located here. I want to stop the water leaking in. I don't know if only a part of the steps needs to be replaced or the whole of the steps. I know that york stone can be very expensive and was wondering if concrete might work out a lot cheaper. I don't like asphalt or tiling as some of my neighbours have done.

Repointing of detached Victorian property with lime mortar. Replacement of stone sills.

Job Description

Repair work required on a range of areas throughout the property, including repointing small areas, brick repair and window sill repair. Please see the attached photos for examples of the work.

Property is Victorian (circa 1880s) and has had some repointing and brick cleaning work already completed prior to us purchasing the house. Some of the work is on the first floor and in the loft space.

We would like the successful tradesman to inspect the entire property and advise any additional areas not already identified.

Any quotes provided following inspection, should include both labour and materials.

Job Description

Render two separate areas of wall where the brickwork was damaged or affected by damp and for general aesthetic purposes. Seal the top and edges to prevent water seeping into the render and any other appropriate damp treatment that is recommended. One section of wall is above a drain area which in the past has not drained away fully and water has seeped into the walls. The work may also include painting the surface depending on the cost of this element. I would guess / estimate that one section is 1.5m wide by up to 4m high, and the other is up to 4m wide and 2-2.5m high. Thank you!
