Repointing & pointing specialists across the North West — failed mortar joints raked out by hand and repointed properly. Brickwork, gable ends, parapets, chimneys, ridge and verge. Stops the damp and keeps the weather out for decades.
Pointing is our specialism — and it's the thing most North West properties quietly need. The mortar between your bricks and ridge tiles is what holds the weather back, and once it's cracked, hollow or washing out, water gets straight in. We hand-rake out the failed joints, brush them clean and repoint them properly, so the work disappears into the wall and the damp stops where it starts.
We point everything from gable ends and parapets to chimneys, ridges and verges, and we use the right mortar for the building — a sand and cement mix on modern brickwork, breathable lime mortar on older and period properties where cement would do more harm than good. Either way you get straight advice and a written price first.
From a single chimney stack to a whole gable end of brickwork — pointed to last.
Cracked, hollow and washed-out mortar raked out by hand to a clean depth — never just smeared over the top, which never lasts.
A sand and cement mix on modern walls; breathable lime mortar on older and period properties, so the brickwork can dry out as it should.
Loose or cracked ridge, hip and verge tiles re-bedded and repointed — the first thing to fail on an exposed roof, sorted before it lets water in.
Maintenance-free dry-verge caps fitted to gable ends in place of mortar bedding — they won't crack, wash out or come loose in the wind.
Exposed chimney stacks and parapet walls take the worst of the weather. We rake out and repoint them, renewing flaunching and flashings where needed.
Whole gable ends and elevations repointed and colour-matched, so the wall reads as one — not a patchwork of fresh mortar against old.
Lime-sympathetic on period properties, clean and crisp on everything else — and weathertight either way.
Pointing is what we're known for. We know which mortar suits which wall, raked out by hand and finished so the work blends straight in.
