Which rules apply in the South West?

Social landlords are commercial clients under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, so the full client duties apply. Where there is more than one contractor, the client appoints a principal designer and a principal contractor. A project must be notified to HSE if it lasts more than 30 working days with more than 20 workers on site at once, or exceeds 500 person-days.

What does it cost in the South West?

We price brickwork, pointing and render repairs in the South West after a survey rather than from a guide range, because the wall area, the mortar needed and access vary from building to building. Send us the details and we will arrange a visit.

How do we deliver it?

While the scaffold is up we look at everything in reach (gutters, fascias, chimneys, window heads) and report it, so you can decide whether to add it before access is lost.

Will repointing cure damp?

It can, where failed pointing is letting rain in. We check for other causes as well, such as gutters, ground levels and bridged damp-proof courses.

Can you deal with structural cracking?

We carry out crack repairs to an engineer's design. If cracking suggests movement, we recommend an engineer before any work is priced.
