Menston houses, and what they need

Menston is a stone-built village of substantial houses on the edge of the moor. The roofline is Yorkshire stone slate and Welsh slate. It is high, exposed and wet — moor-edge conditions, the same as Ilkley.

Small enough that most jobs here are detached stone properties, generally with room to work and generally carrying a good deal of growth.

What we do in Menston

The work we are asked for most here

Pressure washing in Menston. Most of what looks like permanent staining on a wall, a path or a drive is a living film of algae sitting on top of the surface. The skill is not the machine — it is knowing how much pressure a given surface can take before you start removing the surface itself. Rendering in Menston. Render is the wall’s raincoat. While it is sound it keeps water out of the masonry; once it has cracked or blown it holds water against the wall instead, and the damp inside usually arrives before anyone notices the crack outside. Patio cleaning in Menston. A patio does not usually go dark because the stone has changed. It goes dark because a film of algae has grown over it, and under that film the original colour is still there.
