Local issues ## Common property problems in Redbourn ### Older building materials Traditional brick, tile and mortar need matching rather than replacing with modern alternatives. ### Open, exposed gardens Gardens backing onto open ground and the common catch the wind, which strains fences and gates. ### Trees and hedges Mature trees and hedges fill gutters and keep paths damp. ### Ageing roofs Older roofs often need targeted repairs to tiles, ridges and flashing. Local know-how ## Looking after a home in Redbourn ### Storm checks for village homes After high winds, walk round your home and look for slipped tiles, lifted ridges, loose gutters and leaning fence panels. Take photos and send them to Francis. Dealing with damage quickly stops the next spell of rain causing problems inside, and keeps exposed fences from failing further. ### Driveways and village frontages Front gardens and driveways set the tone for a village street. Cleaning block paving, re-sanding joints, fixing loose edging and tidying front walls all help a Redbourn home look cared for from the road. ### Hedges, trees and gutters Mature hedges and trees around village gardens drop leaves into gutters and onto paths. Clearing gutters before winter and cleaning shaded paths in spring keeps water flowing and surfaces safe. ### Garden walls and outbuildings Older brick garden walls and outbuildings often need repointing or brick replacement after years of frost. Repairing them early keeps them standing and looking right next to older homes. ### Patios for family gardens Family homes in Redbourn often have gardens that benefit from a level, well-drained patio for seating and play. Laying it on a proper base with a fall away from the house keeps it dry and stable. ### Around the common Homes facing or backing onto Redbourn's large common and surrounding fields catch the wind. Fences and gates need deep-set posts and sturdy construction to stay upright through winter storms. ### Older cottages and the High Street Redbourn's historic High Street and older cottages are built from traditional materials. Repairs should match the existing brick, tile and mortar so the village keeps its character. ### Roofs that have done their time Many older roofs in the village are due targeted repairs to slipped tiles, ridges and flashing. Fixing them early prevents water damage to timbers and ceilings below. ### Easy to reach Redbourn sits between Harpenden and Hemel Hempstead, close to the M1 and a short drive from Dunstable, so it is straightforward for Francis to visit for quotes and work.
