1. The removal and replacement of existing decayed support beams at upper ground level over the Bay windows.

2. The bearing ends of the beams are to be opened up and new composite steel/ concrete bearings ends built in to walls as per Structural Engineer’s recommendations.

3. Opening up to corners of external masonry walling to enable the insertion of stainless steel Heli bars into the corners of brick walls, by removal of existing external render and in some areas internal plaster along with existing mortar joints at every sixth course to a depth of c.40 mm and inserting the bars and repointing with lime mortar specification.

4. Timber joist ends to be re-set and re-pointed in lime mortar and to be retained and braced as per Structural Engineer’s recommendations.

5. Any decayed ends and decayed wall plates to the roof are to be cut out and spliced with treated timbers and vulnerable areas treated with non-toxic born preservative.

6. Chimneys are to be strengthened by means of bonding by pre-stressed lintels being inserted at intervals as per Structural Engineer’s recommendations.

7. Excessively decayed floor joist timbers to be identified, cut out and spliced with treated timbers as required. Timber floor boards are generally in good condition and will be retained and re-used but a plywood skin over the timber floor joists may be required for additional stiffness. Diagonal bracing of the floors will be incorporated via this procedure.

There is a considerable amount of ongoing degradation of the plaster fabric internally as a result of both rainwater penetration and structural destabilisation affecting the bond of ceilings and cornices to sub-strata.

It is essential that works to remedy these issues are addressed in the near future. The subject of this application is therefore the repair and conservation of these internal plaster elements in conjunction with roof, window and structural repairs under separate application.

Proposed works:

Window and door frames and associated shutters and architraves are to be repaired in situ with decayed timber cut out and graft repaired in matching timber cut to the same profile as the original, however with regard to the sashes and door itself, their condition is delicate in that the majority of joints in the sashes and door joints are opening with the failure of glue and the decay of low cills and meeting rails.

In addition, due to the urgent need for structural works and roof repairs the immediate environment will not be a suitable location for working in situ on delicate joinery repair.

It is therefore proposed that the sashes and door are to be removed to a suitable joinery workshop to be stripped of the many layers of paint and for dismantling and for careful insertion of matching replacement sections and re-assembly prior to bringing back and reinstating in the original position.

All new sections are to be matching in profile and in material to that which is being replaced unless as in certain cases more modern repairs are being removed and the correct earlier form reinstated. In those instances then, the model to be replicated will be material of the same age and style within the building as indicated on the drawings.

Similarly, items such as knobs, pull-handles, hinges, catches associated with windows shall be replicated with matching material. In those instances where an earlier form is being reinstated then the model to be replicated will be material of the same age and style within the building.

Generally, joints will be pinned and glued or dowelled and glued as in the original form. Glues will be chosen to be consistent with high quality conservation joinery.

Paint and putty removal will be required to carry out correct repairs; existing glass (where not modern replacement glass) will be carefully retained for re-use. Only fine wire-wool and spirits will be used to clean down old finishes in situ. Hot works will be banned. Paint solvents will be used sparingly to loosen the upper layers of paint prior to washing off, wire-brushing and sanding down to clean wood.

We strongly favour minimal intervention to the windows, casings and fixtures. Graft timber repairs should be confined only to those areas where joints are exposed, otherwise scratches and gouge marks are to be retained.

All existing hinges, knobs, ring pulls and related ironmongery are to be retained, cleaned down and reinstated in their original positions.

All sashes are to be cleaned down, graft repaired and fully reinstated, fully prime and paint, reinstate original glass where surviving and fit new puttied in 4 mm ‘greenhouse’ glass where necessary. Paint and re-fit.

This application relates to land within the North Lotts and Grand Canal Dock Strategic Development Zone.
