One pattern we see consistently across SN9 and SN8 is brick farmhouse exterior repaints across the Kennet valley. It's not always obvious from the street, but it shows up almost immediately during a proper survey. Treating it correctly takes longer than ignoring it, but the painter & decorator for modern apartments finish that goes on top will outlast a quick-cover job by years rather than months.
