Westoe Village is a conservation area with large Victorian houses, where roofs, sash windows, chimneys and joinery need sympathetic repair. Towards the sea front, wind and salt air are hard on roofs, render and fixings, so we specify for exposure.
Planning and Building Control are with South Tyneside Council. Parts of the borough are former coalfield, so ground conditions are checked before extension foundations are designed.
