Jothetaxi Posted April 7 Posted April 7 I’ve put this post in this area, as I was unsure where else to put it. Builders installed weep holes above our doors in random positions and they look a right mess. We know they are required but it’s the random positioning that bothers us and it draws your eye. I’ve attached photos but they don’t really show the extent of it. is there a way of obscuring these? We know they can’t be sealed up.
Mr Punter Posted April 7 Posted April 7 If you are not in an exposed location you could have got away without these as the render would stop water getting through. You probably have weep vents every 450mm but some have been covered by render. You could have a dig about to find more or cover up any you don't like, but either way it is very difficult to make it match in with the render.
Spinny Posted April 7 Posted April 7 Fix something else in place above the doors that disguises, draws the eye away from, or covers the weep holes (heaven forbid) - a canopy or brise soleil, a light or lights, a whispy climbing plant, trellis, a hook(s) for a patio sail, a hanging basket, a rod, an ornamental bird, a plaque etc 1
Jothetaxi Posted April 12 Author Posted April 12 Thanks for the replies. Much appreciated. We are considering adding holes in more symmetrical positions, then closing up the old ones, if someone like a magicman can make it look ok. Would the tray run along the top of the door opening?
