Lochinvar Leaky Home

The Project To repair an old stucco leaky, damp, cold home back to its former glory. The Challenge With this home, we had an unknown to what we would find under the cladding. After drilling out some inspection holes we found that the framing was rotting away. After removing the cladding and assessing the damage we ended up replacing around 85% of all the external framing with new treated timber. This home was also set on a tricky site so that was taken into consideration. Due to the hard access to the site, the best form of cladding to use was Palisade as that is a PVC product that does not need to be painted every few years. After repairing the framing, cladding, new roof & double glazing windows we also added an extra loft inside the living as it had a large ceiling space. This has added a whole new room to the house. The Result These clients are very happy with the new warm, dry and modern-looking home with much more space for the kids who have moved back home.
