HCERA would very much like to establish a list of people recommended for all the services needed to maintain our properties. As you know, we do include “Highly Recommended” in the Newsletters, where people have had good work done and want to tell us about it. Unfortunately, we get rather few of these. A proposal to establish a “Directory of Suppliers, Materials and Tradesmen” came to nothing in the past. With a lively HCERA Facebook group, someone only has to ask and immediately gets several suggestions for someone to do a job. HCERA is particularly keen to identify craftspeople with specialist skills such as lime mortar repointing, a technique which must be done correctly to avoid damage to bricks and irreparable harm to the appearance of a wall.
Would someone like to volunteer to put together a directory with the help of the HCERA Facebook group?
