Old, blown or missing joints raked out and repointed, weatherstruck or flush, with the mortar matched to the wall. Tired valley brick and stone brought back, made watertight and tidied up without losing the character. The right mortar mix matters on older work, and we get it right.
Soft, cracked or missing joints raked back to a sound depth and repointed properly, not just smeared over, so the repair lasts and the wall sheds water again.
The mortar matched to the original for colour and, on older stone and lime-built walls, for softness too, so the new pointing blends in instead of standing out.
Pointed weatherstruck, flush or bucket-handle to suit the wall, struck clean and consistent across the whole elevation.
Spalled or frost-damaged brick cut out and replaced, loose stone reset, and damaged sections rebuilt to match the surrounding wall.
Old lime or weak mortar gives up over the years, and hard cement pointing on a soft older wall traps damp and blows the brick faces. We rake it back to sound material and repoint with a mix that suits the wall so it lasts.
That is the aim. We match the colour and the joint finish, and on older stone or lime-built valley properties we use a softer mix so the repair works with the wall rather than against it.
Either. We do single elevations, chimney breasts, garden walls or a full house, and we will be straight with you about whether a patch will do or the whole wall needs going over.
Yes. Where brick faces have spalled or frost-blown, we cut them out and replace with a matching brick or reclaim as part of the restoration, not just point round them.
There is dust from raking out, but we sheet up, keep it contained and clean down after. The wall is left struck clean with the muck cleared away.
