To help residents source appropriate materials and tradesmen to repair and maintain their homes, the Committee agreed to a compilation of a list which will be available on our website. This will include where to obtain lime mortar for pointing, cast iron gutters and downpipes, leadworkers to repair roofs to bay windows, leaded-light craftsmen to repair the small side windows, painters, joiners to repair timber windows and roofers to retile roofs. This will be less haphazard than the “Highly Recommended” entries in the Newsletter. If anyone has any suggestions from their own recent experiences, please could they drop a note to me at 74 Ethelburt Avenue, or send an email.
