External Run Mouldings in Position |
Externaliy run mouldings. These are mainly decorative
though they still have some practical purpose. The main one being,
shedding water away from the face of the building. Most of these
mouldings follow a set design, and are sized using one pre-determined
measurement. This ensures that scale and proportion are kept. |

Lime render and run in situ mouldings. Northamptonshire |

These set of five pictures show a portico that
was suffering water damage, mainly from a leaking roof and rainwater outlet. Over the years as with so many
structures it had been patched. The majority of this with sand and cement.
With this project we first surveyed it, then made patterns
for all of the mouldings. The old render was removed. This was then
replaced with a lime render. The flat work was marked out to represent
stonework. This was also done to the mouldings which were run in-situ.
Finally a new lead roof was installed along with a new rainwater
outlet. |

Lime render and moulding repairs. Warwickshire |
|
| With this set of chimneys most of the render had
failed and a large number of the bricks underneath had perished.
The failed render was first removed then the damaged bricks were
chopped out and replaced. All the render was then made good to match
the original |
