Anglican church Hammersmith London
A commission done in partnership with Firminger roofing. The flank wall shown was carefully prepared for re-pointing. Its mortar joints were cleaned and recessed ready for re-pointing with a mixture of sharp sand, soft sand, cement and lime. This was a unique opportunity for Jack to get hands-on restoring a genuine piece of Victorian Gothic church. The end result was well received and a satisfying job to have completed.
Refurbishing a small bathroom to create a bathroom shower and steam room.
Jack is seen here
in the process of- grouting the shower/steam area of the project.
This was a joint project with Bryan Edwards of BG Home Heating who secured the job and provided the planning and plumbing technology. Jack provided the carpentry and tiling skills a share of the labouring and the stoic strength of character to shoulder Bryan's relentlessly humourous tirades throughout the project (no small achievement).
