Knebworth

Knebworth is a town and civil parish in the north of Hertfordshire, England, immediately southern of Stevenage. The civil parish covers a location between the towns of Datchworth, Woolmer Green, Codicote, Kimpton, Whitwell, St Paul's Walden and also Langley, and incorporates the town of Knebworth, the small town of Old Knebworth and Knebworth House. There is evidence of individuals living in the location as far back as Neolithic times and also it is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 where it is referred to as Chenepeworde (the ranch belonging to the Dane, Cnebba) with a population of 150. The initial village, now known as Old Knebworth, established around Knebworth House. Advancement of the newer Knebworth village started in the late 19th century centred a mile to the eastern of Old Knebworth on the new railway station and the Great North Road (consequently the A1, and now the B197 since the opening of the A1(M) freeway in 1962). At the millenium the engineer Edwin Lutyens developed Homewood, southeast of Old Knebworth, as a dower house for Edith Bulwer-Lytton. Her child, the suffragette Constance Lytton likewise lived there, until prior to her fatality in 1923. Knebworth has, since 1974, been famously related to many significant open air rock and pop performances at Knebworth House, consisting of Queen's final real-time performance which occurred on 9 August 1986 as well as attracted a participation approximated at 125,000, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Oasis playing to a quarter of a million people for 2 evenings in 1996 as well as more lately Robbie Williams, who for 3 evenings in August 2003 carried out to the largest crowds ever before constructed for a solitary performer. Stats from UK Census 2011: All Citizens: 5,247.

FAQs

how to remove old exterior paint?

How To Remove Old Exterior Paint

When the paint of your house is starting to peel, there’s the need to take a swift action. While some homeowners opt to cover it with vinyl siding or replace it with fibre cement siding, there’s no reason why you would want to hide the exterior of your house if it still looks great. When you don’t want to hide the beauty of your exterior, the only other option you’ve got is stripping or removing of the old paint. So how do you remove old exterior paint without much hassle? Let’s take a look!

✓ Propane blowtorch. Due to its affordability and effectiveness, this blowtorch has been one of the most popular means of removing old exterior paint amongst homeowners for quite some time. It makes use of high heat to soften the acrylic-latex paint which makes it easy to peel off with a putty knife. However, it can also be very risky to use as it’s always a dangerous game when it comes to open flames. What’s more? Applying an open flame to lead-based paint may release toxic lead fumes, therefore you’d have to be very careful if you wish to use this method.

✓ Electric sanders. Belt sanders are a great option to removing old exterior paint as they’re able to strip off the paint quickly. However, this must be done gently and carefully as you’d risk gouging the wood if you lay into the sander too hard. The problem with this method is also lead-based paint as the sander tends to convert everything to dust and direct them straight to your face, hair and lungs.

✓ Scrapping. This involves using a sharp, rigid putty knife or blade designed for painting scraping to strip the exterior paint. This method also involves dust but you’d have a better control over it than the sander.

Which external areas can be painted?

This will depend on your property, but commonly painted areas include rendered walls, guttering, soffits and fascias, and window frames. Generally you can paint what you want but on older or listed buildings, you may be restricted. An experienced painter will tell you what is possible.

Do I need planning permission to paint the outside of my home?

In most areas, you will not need planning permission. However, if the property is listed or in a conservation area, you will need listed building consent or planning permission to paint the exterior. A surveyor or architect's advice will be invaluable as they can help with this process.

how much to paint a house exterior?

How Much To Paint A House Exterior?

Do you feel your home is need of a lift to enhance its visual appeal or give it some TLC? In order to impress your visitor or potential buyers, kerb appeal is simply everything. Many homeowners are usually discouraged due to the thought that a painting job is always an expensive one with not so much value in return. However, in reality, painting your home’s exterior is actually one of the most significant improvements one can make as it tells your story and communicates your value.

The cost of getting a house exterior painting job done is based on a number of things which includes the type of walls you possess, whether it’s a maintenance project, whether it’s your first time of painting the house as well as your location. So what’s involved in a painting job?

✓ Scrapping off the loose paint.

✓ Brushing off cobwebs and dust on the surface

✓ Washing the wall

✓ Application of fungicide to mouldy patches

✓ Repairing minor damages

✓ Applying paint surface stabiliser

✓ Applying two coats of your chosen paint

✓ Disposal of waste as well as a full clean up of the site.

Below is a breakdown of the cost of painting the exterior of a house. Kindly note that this is just an example (using a semi detached house) to give you an idea of how much your project is going to cost.

✓ Costly scaffolding isn’t required here but platform towers can be need - this will cost about £80 to £100.

✓ Materials including sand or cement for repairs, plastic sheeting, tape, paint, masonry stabiliser as well as fungicide treatment will cost about £200 to £300

✓ Cost of labour for two workers £700 to £1000 based on the location
