Behind the cement render the masonry is very soft, wet and crumbling. It seems like a small building defect in the original design may have caused the initial problems here, The top stone mouldings or coping have a fall on the top, running away from the face of the building and onto the roof behind, The middle section of building has an extra course of stone built off these sloped coping and finished with a sandstone embellishment. This means that water here will run back towards the extra course and have nowhere to run off to. This would have found it's way into the joints and down into the brickwork. The render would have failed after a while and this is why it was replaced with a very solid sand cement to try to hold back the water. This meant that the moisture would be trapped and continue to damage the lower floor after time, which has also been replaced with cement..
Soft handmade brick will rapidly deteriorate when covered with hard impervious cement and paint. A cheeky appearance also from our new team member 'Matti the mannequin' awaiting his PPE. #conservation #restoration #wirral #cheshire #lime #hot #drone #liverpool #mouldings #historic #plastering #romancement #stucco #jesmonite
