  • Been putting this off for a while: Got some cracks in the front bay window frame and wondering how to fix it.
    It goes down a bit into the brickwork but from the top not from the bottom.
    Maybe selling the house soon so would rather a quick fix.
    Any ideas what I need done?

  • Assuming those are sandstone mullions, fixing it looks either

    1. Replacing the mullion entirely*, or
    2. Cutting the bottom section off & splicing in a new piece*, or
    3. Taking out the cracked / crumbled bits, treat with hardener, screw in some sort of mesh, then rebuild with stone repair, or
    4. Dig out the crumbled bits and slap on some cement**

    * both of those are going to be a ridiculous chore, as you'll need to support the roof while your doing the work
    ** This will make you a puppy killer
