TUDOR BOARDS REPLACED!
We recently had a call from a client with water ingress issues. She had had other 'trades' in to try to sort the issue, but none had succeeded.
We immediately diagnosed the issue as water running behind the rotten Tudor boards and behind the bay roof flashing, causing water to leak through the bay ceiling.
We set about removing the old boards and replacing them with new pressure treated timbers, with 3 coats of high quality exterior paint. We also laminated timbers together to allow us to recreate the curve sections at the top, and fitted new joint pegs to keep the original look. After that, we fitted new lead flashing, repaired any damaged render, and painted the walls with 3 coats of white paint.
All in all, a very satisfying job.
A big thanks to Rich at &I Scaffolding, for the access equipment.
