What is Mortar?
Contemporary mortar is sturdy with cement-like qualities. In contrast, historical mortar was made with lime which is porous and degrades quickly. Exposure to the weather, dampness, and time, can cause structural issues due to the crumbling and loosening of bricks.
Other factors that can contribute to mortar degradation include poorly mixed mortar, poor quality mortar, leaking pipes or gutters and mortar additives used during construction. If left untreated, it can cause extensive if not irreparable damage and decrease the value of the property.
What is brick Repointing?
Brick repointing is the precise and highly specialised process of repairing or replacing the mortar between existing brickwork. To preserve the existing brickwork, engaging a highly trained and experienced mortar pointing specialist is key!
The delicate process of mortar pointing starts with an inspection of the brickwork. We look for signs of damp, loosened bricks, loosened or missing mortar. A mortar mixture is created to Australian standards (AS3700) and closely matched to the existing mortar. The existing mortar is then carefully removed via precision vacuum grinding and replaced with an injection of the new mortar mixture.
Can brick Repointing be Applied to All Brickworks?
Brick Pointing can be applied to any brickwork, from historical restorations to contemporary masonry. It is best for any mortar issue to be addressed straight away to ensure that structures remain timelessly sound, and strength is not compromised. If the brickwork on your property needs the delicate hand of craftsmen focused on a seamless quality finish, let us help you achieve this.

Tim Massey26/10/2023Professional. Reliable. Reasonable. Nikolai and Ashley were skilled, generous with knowledge and advice and worked to a high standard. They showed up on time and were easy to deal with. They diagnosed a long standing wall crack problem, replaced a rusted out lintel and repaired sections of a house wall for me and also advised about and repaired sections of a brick boundary wall around my 1930s residence. Their quotes were also competitive. Highly recommend.
Car Man16/10/2023Ashley and his team worked on the side wall of my old post war home in October 2023. The render had been bubbling and coming off for a while due to the weather and bricks were crumbling. The plan was to strip the render and tidy up for the new render. I don't know anything about this work but I could not fault them. It looks so beautiful seeing the red brick underneath. Ashley was lovely and easy to deal with, the work was completed below expected price in the end and it was all cleaned up with no mess. They could have continued to charge me the full price in the quote, I would have been none the wiser but testament to his honesty he reduced the price. I cannot recommend these guys more highly. Please consider them for any jobs. I'm planning on using Ashley again to tuck point and repair the front of my home.
Matthew Viveiros24/09/2023Had the guys doing some repair work last week on my front wall , ran into some issues out of anyone’s control , they were very helpful with the whole situation and provided solutions. The work they carried out was of a high standard. Highly recommend
