Top Shop, Sutton High Street
This country’s retail estate contains many architectural treasures that are all too often overlooked – after all, ‘they’re just shops.’ But though their commercial status may mean their architectural value is ignored, their commercial value givse their owners an added incentive to cherish them. 137-145 High Street, Sutton, is one such site. Currently the home of a Topshop shop, this pre-war buiding has a rare – and magnificent – faience exterior that was in need of cleaning and restoration...
Complete cleaning & restoration to the Faience façade
The faience façade was cleaned using an approved cleaning chemical and high pressured water system.
All the defective areas of pointing were carefully cut out and repointed to match the existing colour and detail.
All the defective areas of faience stonework were carefully cut back and repaired using our faience repair mortar to match in line colour and detail.
