Render facing the Hamoaze takes the worst of the weather and shows it first. Working out of PL11 we're rarely more than 2.4 miles from a Torpoint job.

What Torpoint owners ring us about

  • Streaking down painted render and dressed stone that's worse on the Saltash-facing elevation than the rest of the house
  • Pebbledash gone blotchy where a gutter has overflowed all season on naval terraces and post-war semis
  • Surface lichen on the south side of painted render and dressed stone - common on ferry town stock in PL11
  • Window-cill streaks running down the front of painted render and dressed stone after rainwater pools
  • Render mottling where chimney flashings leak slowly onto painted render and dressed stone

  3. 3Window pre-wet so over-spray rinses clean - important on older glass in naval terraces and post-war semis
  4. 4Working top-down on the Saltash-facing wall first so streaks rinse away as we go
  5. 5Plinth and damp-course area always rinsed last on ferry town stock in Torpoint
