Re-pointing, London Travelodge’s

Re-pointing works are often required to period properties due to weathering causing the Pointing to fail allowing damp into the property which can cause structural issues if left.

Re-pointing is a delicate process that should only be carried out by a specialist as when carried out incorrectly it can be extremely costly to put right and look awful. Newman’s only use directly employed time served Re-pointing technicians to carry out Re-pointing works.

Parapet Wall Repairs

Parapet Walls are a common feature of many Victorian and Georgian properties in London and Newman’s are often asked what their purpose is and why has mine fallen into a state of disrepair how do I fix it?

Parapet walls came into fashion in the early 18^th century when the building act of 1707 was put into place and banned the use of timber projecting eaves in London as they posed a major fire risk so it became common practice to build a brick parapet that projected above the roof giving the building a flat roof look with a slated gable behind the parapet ring.
