Stockton-on-Tees is a ten-minute drive from our base in Middlesbrough, and we've been working on its housing stock since before half the new estates were built.

Restoration done right - breathable, sympathetic, insurance-friendly. ### Inter-war semis - Hartburn, Fairfield, Norton Cavity-wall semis with bay windows, original timber floors, and the classic kitchen extension. Common: damp at floor-bridging, snapped UPVC cylinders, tired flat roofs. ### Post-war estates - Roseworth, Tilery, Ragworth Solid construction, plasterboard ceilings, and lots of decoration and joinery work. We carry the right parts and the right finish, first time. ### Modern Eaglescliffe & Yarm estates Composite doors, block-and-beam floors, combi boilers.

Stockton has one of the most varied housing stocks on Teesside, from listed Georgian buildings on the High Street to brand-new estates in Yarm and Eaglescliffe. Each era has its own common failure modes - and its own correct fix. Fully insured · £5m public liability Covering Stockton-on-Tees (TS16–TS22) 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 ### Lime plaster failure on Georgian properties Behind the High Street and out into older Norton and Yarm streets, many walls are lime plaster on lath. When previous trades have skimmed gypsum over the top, it traps moisture and blows off in patches. We strip back to a sound substrate and reinstate with lime or breathable equivalents. ### Flood-prone ground floors near the Tees Properties close to the river and the old cuts can see ground-water ingress in heavy rain. We diagnose the route in - air-bricks, gully back-flow, slumped sub-floor - and put in the right combination of damp-proofing, ventilation and drainage. ### Bay-window movement on inter-war semis Hartburn, Fairfield and Norton are full of bay-fronted semis where the bay has settled away from the main wall. Symptoms: cracked plaster at the junction, sticking sash, gappy skirting. We re-bed, re-plaster and re-decorate without papering over the cause. ### Snapped composite-door cylinders on new estates Modern Eaglescliffe and Yarm estates are now hitting the age where original euro-cylinders snap. We carry 3-star anti-snap cylinders sized to the door - fast fix with 3-star Kitemarked hardware (check your own insurer's requirements), no need for a new door. ### Rental damage and turnaround Across the TS18–TS19 rental market we run regular change-of-tenancy jobs - locks changed, walls patched, doors re-hung, decoration freshened - invoiced direct to landlord or agent so the property is back on the market in days.
