What this work involves
Review masonry, joints, junctions and moisture together. Cleaning or a new coating does not automatically solve underlying defects. Assess the cause and test treatment where appropriate.
- Masonry and joint survey
- Damaged material repair
- Appropriate cleaning and finish
- Window and roof connections
- Access and protection
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Position external doors in relation to the dining table and kitchen route.
What the drawing needs to explain
Put the kitchen, dining table, storage and garden door on the same drawing. Mark the main route without moving chairs to reveal how much clear space actually remains.
Allow for later maintenance
Keep flooring and kitchen information together where materials continue between them. Record how local repairs can connect without refinishing the entire zone.
Which trade-off matters?
A kitchen island can be a pleasant meeting place but also an obstacle between the entrance and garden. Compare it with a wall arrangement before designing kitchen and living areas separately.
Cost factors for this service
Area, damage, method and scaffolding affect the price. A test area may help establish the approach.
Bring this to the discussion
Overall and detail photographs, damage and known moisture issues.
