Fully insured · £5m public liability Covering Saltburn-by-the-Sea (TS12) and the wider Teesside area. £5 million public liability cover and a 12-month workmanship guarantee on every job. Company No. 16298499. Talk to Gary ### Gypsum over lime - blown plaster on solid walls Many Jewel Street and Marine Parade walls have been gypsum-skimmed over lime by previous trades. The gypsum traps moisture and blows off in patches. We strip back to a sound substrate and reinstate with lime or other breathable systems. ### Penetrating damp through soft pointing Exposed Victorian brickwork loses its lime pointing to wind-driven rain. We rake out and re-point with lime mortar, allow the wall to dry properly, then re-plaster internally in a breathable system. ### Original sashes and mortice locks Many Saltburn properties still have their original sash windows and mortice locks. We service, draught-seal and re-fit rather than rip-and-replace - and upgrade locks to insurance-compliant BS3621 where required. ### Snapped UPVC cylinders on modern stock Modern infill housing across TS12 sees the same snapped-cylinder pattern as the rest of Teesside. 3-star Kitemarked anti-snap cylinders sized to the door - fast, insurance-compliant fix. ### Holiday-let and B&B turnarounds Quick changeovers between bookings, photo records of every visit, owner-direct invoicing. Locks, plumbing, joinery and decoration covered by one team.
