If you’re not sure if your property require repointing or not, contact us. We can review your mortar and let you know if you need to repair the pointing on your brickwork or stone.

Years of harsh conditions brought on by the North East & UK weather can damage the mortar and make it softer and more absorbent. If your mortar is damaged it’s important that you consider repointing. Weak repointing can cause water leakage and potential structural damage if ignored.

You might not require the full exterior of the property repointed, but it is recommended that you do so. This keeps the age of your properties mortar consistent and not uneven, and it looks better.

It should be clear to see if/when you need repointing. If the mortar is crumbling away, that’s a sign you need to hire a repointing contractor. If you’re unsure, a good way of checking your point work is to measure the depth of the pointing against the height. If the depth is deeper than the height of the gap, then you might require repointing.
