Repointing brick and stone joints

Repointing brick or stone joints is very important when cracks form in a masonry wall. Failure to repair them can have a major impact on the watertightness of the building. This can cause water to seep through to the back of the wall, triggering brick delamination or even the formation of an underbelly. This can eventually lead to the complete collapse of the brick or stone wall. These consequences will require much more costly restoration work. Joint crumbling is due to the freezing cycles we experience in winter.

It's important to call in a masonry contractor to repair masonry joints for several reasons. Firstly, it's important to check for any underlying structural damage in the wall, which could have more serious consequences for the building, such as oxbows, waterproofing problems that would require the entire facade to be rebuilt, and so on. Secondly, the work of professional bricklayers is your guarantee of quality stone wall repointing that lasts.

Our bricklayers will start by carefully removing any damaged joints. Once the surface has been cleaned, they'll select the right shade of repointing mortar to maintain the facade's aesthetic appearance. Finally, they can move on to repointing the stone or brickwork.
