RE-POINTING
Even the strongest brickwork suffers as mortar weathers over time. Our specialists in traditional and modern repointing restore strength, protect against damp, and preserve the character of your property for decades to come.
Barkham Brickwork provides both contemporary sand-and-cement repointing and heritage lime mortar techniques, ensuring your walls are structurally sound, weather-resistant, and visually authentic.
WHY RE-POINTING MATTERS
-
Mortar is the “glue” that holds masonry together — it always weathers faster than the bricks themselves.
-
Left unchecked, failed mortar leads to water penetration, draughts, staining, and in time, serious structural damage.
-
Professional repointing not only restores strength but also prevents costly repairs in the future.
