Steria Consulting was appointed to investigate the issue, assess the full extent of the defect, and deliver a robust set of repair recommendations.

Drawing on our technical expertise and experience with sensitive heritage properties, we ensured that all proposed works aligned with the strict requirements of the conservation area, preserving the building’s original character.

Our guidance led to the careful deconstruction of the ground-floor bay window and its reconstruction around a bespoke steel frame, designed to retain the original 9-inch brick detail while providing improved structural support to the existing lintels. This solution delivered a durable repair that respected the historic fabric of the property while addressing the underlying structural concerns.
