Looking for recommendation - someone to repair render, lead flashing etc on front of house

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for a recommendation for someone to put up scaffolding on the front of my house, check the render is not damaged, repair it where it is, sort out lead flashing on window tops etc etc. One of those jobs that's a bit difficult to scope out until the scaffolding is up and they can have a good look at what's going on. I do know that there are some plants growing out of windowsills etc so there's definitely some repair work to be done! But would like someone who knows what they're doing - with all the painted frontages of houses in ED, Peckham etc there must be someone with this expertise!

Many thanks in advance.

    • Just pull out, if you can  If the owners haven't been upfront with you about these things, what else might they not have told you? Better to lose some money now than buy it  and regret it. Plus as you say, what would happen if you wanted to sell the house in the future? Also, an insurer who will insure you now may not necessarily continue to do so. I have had subsidence, my then insurer withdrew my insurance as a result of the claim, and I had to go through a specialist broker to get insured. I would say it's just not worth the risk and the hassle, irrespective of the structural stability report (which presumably isn't a guarantee?) And don't be embarrassed! None of this is your fault!
    • That's the most off topic post ever 🤣 A lot better than I was, out of bed, still not great, thanks for asking! Back on topic, C123 if you can't find anything within your price range, you could always go out for a non Christmas lunch and take your own crackers (are they still a thing?), party hats (ditto) and a sprig of holly to put on top of your dessert. And a bottle of Baileys or advocaat.You might have to hide that.
