Woodford is home to many attractive 1930s and Edwardian houses, where traditional brick façades play a key role in the character of the property. Over the years, however, many homeowners have chosen to paint their brickwork — sometimes to refresh the appearance, sometimes to cover ageing brick.
While paint can offer a quick cosmetic change, it often creates long-term issues for traditional brick homes.
