Dawdon is a coastal pocket inside Seaham, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Seaham job. We plan around salt-air corrosion on roofline trims, fixings and gutters. That's why this page exists separately to ourSeaham page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
