Repointing- Repointing is a key part in property maintenance, often neglected until its actually causing a problem. Failing pointing can lead to damp problems, leaks, condensation and damage to brickwork etc. Using our specialist techniques, we can repoint your property to a high standard. Leaving your brickwork water tight and ready to battle the elements.

Firstly we start by removing the old mortar (pointing) Commonly know as the rake out stage. This is done by us using our specially designed mortar raking kit which allow us to ensure we gain nice clean, clear cut joints ready for repointing, our kits have vacuum suction attached to them, this helps to control the dust. Sometimes simple hand tools are just as effective if the pointing is really soft.

Here at Tidybrick, when we conduct pointing work, we do our up most to insure we use the best mortar mix for your property, we often use lime based mortars, as they would of traditionally been built. We make sure every detail is pointed to the highest standard.
Leaving your property completely transformed. For examples of our repointing work, see the photos below, check out our video showing how a fine weather struck is done.
