Product description
Haynes Period Property Manual Care And Repair Of Old Houses
Britain has a wonderfully rich stock of period houses - everything from medieval cottages to Georgian townhouses and Edwardian mansions. But many of these historic properties are now at risk. Some are unwittingly damaged by well-meaning owners or incompetent builders; others suffer long-term deterioration where mortgage lenders have imposed quick-fix 'remedies'.
Despite being some of the most sustainable buildings on the planet; many old houses are now being subjected to ill-advised works to upgrade thermal efficiency; resulting in the destruction of the very qualities that make them so appealing; slashing their values. Haynes have come to the rescue with this clearly written; lavishly illustrated manual explaining the correct approach to care and repair - covering the full range of traditional materials.
