Safeguard your Lambeth brickwork: Expert repointing services from Heritage Stone Renovate

While brick itself is a highly durable building material, the mortar that holds it all together can crumble and deteriorate over time, especially in the ever-changing climate of Lambeth.

This can lead to a number of problems, both aesthetic and structural. Crumbling mortar creates gaps that allow water to penetrate the brickwork, which can cause spalling (flaking) of the bricks themselves and lead to damp issues within your Lambeth property.

Furthermore, loose mortar weakens the overall structure of the brickwork, potentially leading to cracks and instability.

Repointing, the process of replacing the old, damaged mortar with new, high-quality material, is essential for maintaining the structural integrity and weather resistance of your Lambeth brickwork.

It not only protects your property from further damage but also restores the original beauty and character of your brick facade.

Preserving Lambeth’s past: Brick repointing for historic buildings

Brick has been a mainstay of construction for centuries, adorning countless listed buildings across Lambeth. However, even the most time-worn materials require attention.

The mortar between the bricks can weaken due to age, weather, and pollution, jeopardising the structural integrity and historical significance of these cherished buildings.

Our brick repointing services for listed buildings are specifically tailored to address the unique needs of these structures:

Historically Accurate Materials

We meticulously research and source materials that match the original mortar used in your listed building. This ensures a seamless aesthetic repair that maintains the building’s historical integrity.

Traditional Techniques

Our skilled craftsmen possess expertise in traditional repointing methods, ensuring the repairs are not only structurally sound but also replicate the original craftsmanship.

Minimal Intervention

We prioritise a minimally invasive approach, minimising disruption to the surrounding brickwork and preserving as much of the original fabric as possible.

Frequently asked questions

Can repointing be done in any weather conditions?
Repointing is best performed in mild, dry weather to ensure the new mortar sets properly. Extreme temperatures, both hot and cold, as well as wet conditions, can affect the mortar’s curing process. We schedule repointing work during optimal weather conditions to guarantee the best results.
How do I know if my brickwork needs repointing?
Signs that your brickwork may need repointing include visible cracks in the mortar joints, loose or crumbling mortar, damp or damaged interior walls, and gaps between bricks. If you notice any of these issues, it’s best to have a professional inspect your brickwork to determine if repointing is necessary.
How often should brick repointing be done?
The frequency of repointing depends on various factors, including the type of mortar used, the age of the building, and exposure to weather conditions. Generally, brickwork may need repointing every 20 to 30 years. However, regular inspections can help identify the need for repointing before significant damage occurs.
What type of mortar is used in repointing?
We use mortar that matches the original in composition, colour, and texture to ensure a seamless blend with the existing brickwork. For historic or period properties, we use traditional lime mortars that are appropriate for the age and style of the building, ensuring both durability and historical accuracy.
Will repointing change the appearance of my brickwork?
When done professionally, repointing enhances the appearance of your brickwork by filling gaps and cracks with mortar that closely matches the original. This process restores the uniformity and beauty of the brickwork, often making it look as good as new without altering its character.
How long does the repointing process take?
The duration of the repointing process depends on the size of the project and the extent of the damage. After an initial assessment, we provide a detailed timeline tailored to your specific needs. Our team works efficiently to minimise disruption while ensuring the highest quality workmanship.
