Hi folks I'm posting a few questions in the relevant sections with regard to a house we would like to buy. It's a good bit over 100 years old and of sandstone construction I believe. Survey said 700mm thick walls. There appear to be some cracks which have been patched up don some point and the pointing looks to have been redone, I suspect with cement but was hoping someone could confirm. As they appear in the picture, do you think the cracks look to be particularly problematic? There is penetrating damp either from the chimney area, the wall or a combination of both. Say water is conning in through the wall, how bad could it get financially to properly repair a crack? Would the pointing need chipped out and redone if it's in cement?
Thanks in advance for your advice. View media item 88895 View media item 88896 View media item 88897 View media item 88898 View media item 88899 View media item 88900 View media item 88901 View media item 88902 View media item 88903 View media item 88904
