One of the first jobs after lock-down was to paint the exterior, including window, soffits, fascias, doors and the porch of a three story end terrace at Hillhead. The masonry had to be washed with a fungicidal wash to remove the green mould and sea gull mess.
Quite a few of the windows had blown double glazed units that I had to replace before they could be painted. Quite often when double glazed units are blown moisture soaks into the wood of the window sashes so I had to cut out and replace the glazing bead on several windows as well as large sections of rotten wood.
