Brickwork pointing and repointing by LGC Plastering

What is pointing?

Pointing is the process of filling and finishing the joints between bricks or other masonry. Good-quality mortar joints help protect brickwork from the weather while contributing to the appearance and condition of a building.

Over time, mortar can become cracked, loose or weathered. Repointing involves removing damaged mortar and replacing it with suitable new mortar to help restore the masonry and protect it from further deterioration.

Repointing brickwork and masonry

Damaged mortar

Damaged or deteriorated mortar can leave masonry more exposed to the elements. Repointing replaces the affected joints and helps restore the appearance and condition of the brickwork.

Weathered properties

Older properties can develop worn mortar joints over many years of exposure to wind, rain and frost. Repointing can form part of ongoing maintenance and renovation work.

Areas we can repoint

External brick walls
Garden walls
Extensions
Outbuildings

Older properties

Brickwork requiring repair

Repointed brickwork and repaired mortar joints

Brickwork repairs and preparation

Repointing is often carried out as part of wider maintenance or renovation work. Where mortar joints have deteriorated, addressing the affected areas can help prepare the building for further repairs or finishing.

We can work alongside other trades where additional masonry, roofing, rendering or building repairs are required.

Pointing for renovations

Repointing can make a significant difference to the appearance of older brickwork and is often considered during property renovations, extensions and general maintenance.

Whether you need individual areas repaired or pointing as part of a larger renovation project, we provide a practical and professional service.
