Soudan Street Malvern.
A classic Victorian home whose owners wanted to retain its
period authenticity. Three double hung, arch topped windows
had deep rot in the sills, stiles and sashes. Replacement
cost (matching original detail): $5,700. Cost
of Stop The Rot's10 Year Guaranteed Stop The Rot! restoration
service: $3,200.
Block of 9 flats in Brighton
Individually owned large upmarket apartments. While the building
is generally well maintained, the 72 windows (including the
huge full wall windows on the south and west elevations) were
heavily rot damaged. As is often the case, the windows had
been repaired some years before but this had only covered
over the problem. 7 years later, the rot had continued to
eat the wood to the point that most builders would insist
that most of them needed replacing. Our competitors quoted
from $16,000 (a temporary patch-up at best) to over $200,000
with no guarantee. Senseal' Stop The Rot restoration service
replaced several windows and restored the rest. Stop The Rot
wasn’t the cheapest quote but the owners did not want
to repeat the same mistake and have to re-do the work yet
again, or face complete replacement costs in the near future.
Cost of Stop The Rot's10 Year Guaranteed Stop
The Rot! restoration service: $49,480.
