Corinthian Stone was approached because small masonry pieces were detaching from the building's top string course, posing a danger at the front entrance. This threatened both the building's structural integrity and public safety. A visual inspection from the ground level revealed the necessity for an emergency scaffold to protect both workers and the public.
Once the scaffold was set up, a thorough stonework evaluation was carried out to secure loose stones and prevent additional debris. Subsequently, planning permissions were obtained from the local council to ensure compliance with historical building regulations.
The repairs involved replacing ashlar stones in the parapet wall and façade, preserving the property's aesthetic and structural integrity. New hand-carved string courses and window jambs were installed, crucial for the building's stability and window functionality.
This approach resolved immediate safety concerns and ensured the building's long-term preservation. Corinthian Stone's dedication to craftsmanship and heritage ensures the property's continued significance and safety for future generations, focusing on the restoration of the Bath city townhouse.
