Pointing and repointing in Shaw
Shaw and Crompton have the classic mill-town mix: stone terraces on the older streets around the mills, brick terraces below them, and semis from the 30s onwards. High Crompton is exposed and stone-heavy — lime pointing territory. We repoint, replace spalled brick and stone, and sort chimneys across all of it.
