Repointing Brickwork

Repointing is a crucial maintenance process for brick structures, ensuring their longevity and structural integrity. Over time, weather conditions, pollution, and natural wear and tear can cause the mortar between bricks to deteriorate. Repointing involves removing and replacing this deteriorated mortar, strengthening the overall structure and enhancing its aesthetic appeal.

Signs Your Brickwork Needs Repointing

Cracks in Mortar Joints: If you notice cracks or gaps between bricks, it's a clear sign that the mortar is failing.
Deterioration of Mortar: Check for crumbling or missing mortar. If the mortar has become powdery, it needs immediate attention.
Water Damage: Stains on interior walls or signs of water penetration can indicate compromised mortar joints.
Visual Inspection: Regularly inspect your brickwork for any visual irregularities. If you see anything unusual, it's wise to consult a professional.

Damp Proofing

Damp problems in buildings can lead to various issues, including mould growth, structural damage, and compromised indoor air quality. Dampness can result from various sources such as rising damp, penetrating damp, or condensation. Damp proofing is a crucial preventive and remedial measure to protect your property from the harmful effects of moisture intrusion.

Signs of Damp Issues

Musty Odors: Unpleasant, musty smells are often an early indication of damp problems.
Visible Stains: Stains on walls and ceilings can signal water penetration or rising damp.
Peeling Wallpaper or Paint: Moisture can cause wallpaper or paint to peel away from surfaces.
Mould Growth: Black mould or mildew on walls is a clear sign of excess moisture.
Deteriorating Plaster: Moisture can cause plaster to crumble and deteriorate over time.
