Pointing and repointing in Leigh
Leigh's terraces around Bedford, Pennington, Plank Lane and the town centre are late-Victorian red brick built for mill and pit workers, and there are miles of them. Cement repointing in a bucket-handle joint, front elevations one at a time or as a street run when neighbours get together. Mining subsidence has left some walls with stepped cracks — we'll tell you if that needs stitching before it's worth repointing.
The inter-war and post-war semis around Lowton, Higher Folds and Westleigh are bays, gables and chimneys. Forty-five minutes from Rochdale down the M62 and M6; we'll happily take on whole-house jobs here.
