Market Harborough

Market Harborough is a market town within the Harborough district of Leicestershire. It is the administrative head office of Harborough District Council, and has a population of 22911 residents. Formerly at a crossroads for both road and rail, the A6 now circumvents the town to the east, and the A14, which contains east-west traffic, is 6 miles to the south. The town is positioned on land that typically comprised Rockingham Forest, a royal hunting forest used by medieval monarchs after William I. There are 2 towns within the boundaries of Market Harborough. Great Bowden can be located a mile from the town centre, and Little Bowden is under half a mile from the town centre. The three centres have actually predominately blended due to ribbon development and infill. Looming over the town centre is the steeple of St. Dionysius Parish Church, which increases directly from the street as there is no church lawn surrounding the building. The Old Grammar School, a reasonably small timber building dating back to 1614, has actually become a sign of the town. The town square is largely pedestrianised and surrounded by many structures, although most buildings located in the High Street are Georgian structures that continue to be mainly undamaged. Market Harborough underwent significant transformation in the latter half of the 20th century. This includes the establishment of the head office for Golden Wonder crisp producers, and the demolition of the old Symington factory to the building and construction of Eden Court shops and flats. In 1968, the centre of Market Harborough was labelled as a preservation area. In 2007, its popular park, Welland Park, was granted Green Flag Award Status, acknowledging excellence and high environmental standards. For all of your house upgrades, make certain to make use of credible contractors in Market Harborough to make certain of quality.

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.

How should I prepare for exterior painting and decorating?

Exterior painters and decorators will prepare the areas to be painted for you. This will involve washing and cleaning the area and making sure that it’s a good quality surface. Cracks or holes should be filled in. In some cases, you may wish to have rendering redone before the painting is done.

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.

What’s the best time of year to carry out exterior painting and decorating?

Most companies will recommend that exterior painting and decorating is carried out in the summer months. However, advances in paint technology mean that some paints can be applied in low temperatures and even when it’s raining. Check the can for the best conditions in which to apply or ask a professionals advise.
