Homes and walls in Paisley
Surveys in Paisley also cover the surrounding PA1 district and towns such as Renfrew and Clydebank. Paisley sits around 7 miles from Glasgow.
West Central Scotland has sandstone tenements, interwar and post-war council housing including no-fines and other system-built types, and many harled (roughcast) houses.
Parts of Greater Glasgow fall in the higher wind-driven rain exposure bands, especially coastal and upland sites, so render specification, movement joints and detailing at cills, verges and the base of the wall matter more than usual.
