Every project is unique, which is why we carefully develop a custom brick tint for each job to ensure a natural, consistent, and professional finish.

POPULAR QUESTIONS

Get Answers to Your Pointing Questions

How long does brick pointing last?

A high-quality brick pointing or repointing job can last 40–60 years on most residential properties.

Areas exposed to harsher weather, such as chimneys or properties on higher ground, may require maintenance sooner due to increased exposure.

How can I tell if my brick pointing needs redoing?

Common signs that brick pointing is failing include mortar that looks weathered, soft, cracked, or missing in places.

Discolouration, crumbling joints, or internal damp patches can also indicate that the mortar is no longer protecting the brickwork from moisture.

FAQ image

What is the difference between pointing and grouting?

Pointing refers to replacing or repairing the mortar joints between bricks or stonework.

Grouting is used for filling joints between tiles, such as in bathrooms or kitchens.

The two processes use different materials and serve different purposes.

What types of properties can be repointed?

Brick pointing and repointing can be carried out on most residential properties, including:

terraced houses, semi-detached homes, detached houses, bungalows, cottages, and similar brick-built properties.

What is the difference between lime mortar and sand and cement mortar?

There are several differences between lime mortar and sand and cement mortar. Lime mortar is more breathable, allowing moisture to pass through the masonry, which makes it ideal for older properties, listed buildings, and stone or heritage brickwork.

Sand and cement mortar is harder and commonly used on modern properties. Lime mortar typically costs more due to material and labour requirements and is usually installed in warmer months due to temperature conditions.

How much does brick pointing cost?

The cost of brick pointing or repointing depends on factors such as property size, access, mortar type, and the condition of the existing brickwork.
