Sale · Victorian and Edwardian villas, inter-war semis in Sale Moor...
Pointing and repointing in Sale
Sale has a lot of good Victorian and Edwardian houses — the villas around Brooklands, Ashton on Mersey and the station are large, with rubbed-brick arches, string courses and stone cills, and their owners want a tidy, matched joint rather than a cheap job. That is fine by us; we mix to match a cleaned sample and use the right joint profile for the period.
Sale Moor and the streets towards Timperley are inter-war semis where the pointing is failing at ninety years old; full fronts and chimneys. The Mersey side floods and the lower courses show it. Forty-five minutes from Rochdale — we group Sale jobs and bigger ones are always worth the drive.
