Looking after a canal or estuary property
Water on three sides changes what a building needs. Humidity stays higher for longer, salt comes off the estuary as well as the ocean, and properties sitting empty between guests or tenants do not get small problems noticed early. Worth checking each year:
- Timber closest to the water – decking, handrails and pergola posts on the water side weather far faster than the street side. Re-coating just that face buys years.
- Sliding doors and tracks – canal-side sliders collect salt and grit in the track. Rollers wear, the door drops, then it starts catching on the frame.
- Ventilation in closed-up rooms – a rental shut up for a fortnight in summer grows mould in ensuites and robes. An extraction fan that actually vents outside is the cheapest fix there is.
- Fixings and brackets – balustrade posts, gate hinges and screen fittings corrode from the inside out. Surface rust usually means the fixing behind it is further gone.
- Wet area silicone – perishes faster in humid air. Re-caulking is a small job. A shower leaking into the next room is not.
