Local knowledge

Local housing stock & what it needs

Housing in Settle is mostly Georgian and early Victorian property, often listed or in a conservation area. That decides the prep, and prep is most of the job. There are stone terraces with solid walls in the mix too. Parts of the area are in the Settle Conservation Area. That can limit what you do to a frontage, so it is worth checking before settling on an exterior colour.

Settle is at the edge of our area. We take work there, usually full rooms or whole properties rather than small jobs. We also cover Gargrave, Barnoldswick and Earby.

FAQs

Questions we get asked a lot

  • Do you cover Settle?

    Yes. We work across BD24 and the wider Craven & the Dales edge area. If your postcode is not listed, ring anyway — the boundaries are not exact.
  • Our walls are solid stone and the plaster is patchy. Can that be made good?

    Usually, yes. Solid stone walls behave differently from a modern cavity: damp shows on the inside face, and old lime plaster under a newer skim tends to let go. We would look at it before quoting and say whether it needs patching, a full re-skim, or the cause dealing with first.
  • How do you quote?

    We look at the job, then send a written quote. No charge for either, and the price does not move unless you change the work. Call or message 07784 175179.
