We Do It All

Over time there may be parts of your mortar that has fell out due to the elements of weather and erosion over the years. water can collect behind the joints and cause structual damage.

Having your property pointed will keep the water out and keep the damp away.

Lime mortar pointing is the renewing of the pointing between the bricks or stone.  It is a flexible material which can move and absorbs co2, because of this it makes it ideal to improve water proofing, the appearance and structural stability.

The correct mortar needs to be mixed and applied to its originality, this depends on the type of wall and the strength needed.

we offer a choice of aggregates and sands to match existing brickwork and pointing

Bricks and stone work over the years can become stained by carbon deposits, there are many ways to clean them, different methods include ; chemical cleaning, sand blasting or Jet washing.

We take pride in our cleaning and aim for the best finish, leaving your brickwork looking like the day it was laid.
