For an older Sale property, show today’s use and layout as well as its frontage. Different wall finishes and later wings should be listed separately so each provider prices the same windows, gutters and surfaces.
Start with the service you need below, then choose the property type or measured area that fits the job. These benchmarks help you budget; the photographs, materials and access at your own home determine the full quote.
The former farmhouse on Cross Street
The former farmhouse at 118–120 Cross Street combines brick, a rendered section and a stone-slate roof. Later shopfront work and a rear wing alter the original arrangement. This is one documented local example. Use the features that match your own home when preparing the enquiry.

Separate the different finishes on your home
Brick, render, cladding, tile-hanging and timber are not interchangeable surfaces. Mark the sections you want cleaned on a wide photograph and add close-ups. Ask the provider to name the work on each finish, including anything excluded from the price.

Include additions to the original house
A garage, lean-to, conservatory or rear extension may add glass and gutters while reducing the working space below upstairs windows. Include those additions in the same set of photographs. Ask whether their roofs, gutter runs and downpipes are included in each proposal.
