Greenwich is one of South London’s most historic and architecturally rich areas, known for its Georgian buildings, Victorian terraces, riverside properties, and traditional London stock brick façades.
Many homes and buildings across Greenwich were constructed using breathable lime mortar systems, allowing moisture to naturally evaporate through solid brick walls. However, over time, exposure to river humidity, weather conditions, and cement-based repairs has led to widespread brick deterioration.
