Masonry Repointing
Restore the structural integrity of your chimney or building with repointing.
Masonry repointing involves removing damaged or deteriorated mortar and replacing it with new material. This process restores the durability and aesthetic of your chimney or building.
Weather conditions and the passage of time can erode mortar, leading to structural weakness and potential water ingress.
Our experienced masons carefully match the new mortar to the existing structure, ensuring a seamless look and enhanced durability.
On the day
- An assessment of the existing mortar condition is conducted.
- Old mortar is gently removed from the joints.
- New mortar is applied and tooled to match the original design.
- A final inspection ensures proper application and coverage.
