Hi
As always, I'm after a bit of help....... the bay window on the front of our house has stone ‘cornering’ on the angled sections at the front. As can be seen from the attached pics, it looks like the stone has been painted with something in the past that has then caused it to break down in places, leaving a right mess . I’m in a bit of a dilemma as to what to do ;- I spoke to a builder who said, ooooh, tricky job that...... you’d need to take them out but that would involve jacking up the bay etc, so basically leave well alone.
The other advice was to fill them with exterior Tetrion, and then paint over but I’m a bit reluctant to do that if that’s what’s caused them to go like that in the first place!
I’m not sure if this should really be a building or decoration issue but thought I’d start with the decoration forum to get some views.
As always, any advice would be much appreciated.
