Churchtown is the oldest corner of Southport, and its housing shows that story: period cottages and old village properties around the botanic gardens, with Victorian and later homes fanning out from the centre. Older solid-walled buildings like these manage moisture in their own way, and they suffer when sealed up with impermeable modern renders and paints.
Our Churchtown work is led by breathable materials and honest diagnosis. Lime render for the village’s older walls so they can expel moisture naturally, careful brick and pointing repairs, and proper investigation before any damp proof course is recommended, because in old buildings condensation and ground level defects are often the real story. Where mould has taken hold we sterilise it and fix the conditions that caused it.
Assessments, honest answers and breathable specifications for one of Southport’s most characterful corners. We are based minutes away.
