BRICK REPOINTING PROCESS
MORTAR REMOVAL
We start by carefully removing the damaged or loose mortar between the bricks using specialized hand tools or grinders. This creates clean, uniform joints and prevents damage to the surrounding bricks, ensuring a solid base for the new mortar.
NEW MORTAR APPLICATION
Fresh mortar, mixed to match the color and texture of the original, is tightly packed into the joints. This not only restores the wall’s appearance but also seals it against water intrusion and weather damage, adding strength and durability.
JOINT REFINISHING & CLEANUP
Once the mortar begins to set, we tool the joints to achieve a clean, uniform finish that blends seamlessly with the existing brickwork. We then clean the surface, leaving your wall looking revitalized and protected for years to come.
