Sudbury is characterised by its attractive 1930s semi-detached homes, bay-fronted properties, and traditional London stock brick construction. Many of these houses were built using breathable lime mortar systems, though later repairs often introduced hard cement mortar that can accelerate brick deterioration.
Over time, exposure to weather cycles, ageing materials, and incompatible repairs can cause mortar joints to crack and brick faces to weaken.
