House Repointing Project Completed by CJM Brickwork & Building Services Ltd

Recently, CJM Brickwork & Building Services Ltd was instructed to carry out extensive repointing works to a residential property. Over time, the existing mortar joints had deteriorated due to weather exposure, allowing moisture to penetrate the brickwork and affecting the overall appearance of the property.

Repointing is one of the most important maintenance tasks for any brick-built property. Damaged or missing mortar can lead to water ingress, frost damage and long-term structural issues if left untreated. Our client contacted us after noticing sections of mortar had become loose and weathered across the gable elevation of their home.

Repointing Works Carried Out

The project involved the erection of scaffolding to provide safe access to the full height of the property. Existing defective mortar joints were carefully ground out to the correct depth before being thoroughly cleaned and prepared for repointing.

New mortar was then applied throughout the affected areas, restoring the strength and weather resistance of the brickwork while significantly improving the appearance of the property.

The works included:

• Scaffold supply and installation

• Grinding out defective mortar joints

• Full repointing of brickwork

• Site protection and preparation

• Waste removal and site clean-up

• Final inspection of completed works

  
  

Benefits of Professional Repointing

Professional repointing helps to:

• Prevent water penetration through external walls

• Improve the structural integrity of brickwork

• Protect against frost damage

• Enhance the appearance of a property

• Extend the lifespan of existing brickwork

• Increase property value and kerb appeal
