Mortar Pointing is the correction of fretting mortar on the exterior brickwork. Fretting mortar is extremely common with exposed brickwork and is caused by natural degradation of the mortar between the bricks as the result of weather, time and possibly bad craftsmanship when it was originally constructed.

If your mortar is any more than 10mm short of the brick face or showing signs of deterioration/crumbling then you should definitely consider having it re-pointed, otherwise the damage can spread and leave you with much larger issues in the future which increases the cost of fixing the problem.

Upon your request for a free quote, we will attend your site, analyse the extent of the fretting mortar and carry out a matching process to ensure that the work that we carry out will blend in with your existing building.

Commencing the mortar pointing work

Commencing the work, we will begin by cutting away the old fretting mortar to a depth of 20-30mm, and flushing out the joints with clean water. The new mortar is then applied to match the existing design. We take careful notice to ensure that the mortar is flush with the brick face (or slightly recessed, depending on the desired appearance) and leaving a neat finish.

Lee was recommended by a colleague and from the initial chat on the phone to be the current point, mid point, I knew it was the right decision. Very knowledgeable, friendly and he spends the time to make sure the job is not only done to the Clients requirements and preferences but also that it's done right and as efficiently as he can. His team are keen and enthusiastic, and it's impressive seeing just how much they can get done when given the opportunity but also how careful and the pride they take in their work and the businesses reputation. It's a small thing to some but when I saw a brush coming out of the van as one of the first items and was reassuring. Amazing how many trades don't tidy up each day but without fail everything swept and ready to start again the following day. I would not hesitate to recommend Lee and his team to anyone requiring building work conducting within the area.

Lee Burns and his team at Western Wall did an outstanding job. They were responsive to my tight schedule, turned up when they said they would turn up, did what they they said they would do and took great care of our house in the process. They were respectful of working in our home with protective measures and didn't treat it like a building site. I have contracted them for two more bigger jobs since then and again they were super responsive and did high quality work. I had no hesitation in recomendeing them to two of my friends and colleagues, both of which engaged Western Wall as well. Western Wall are a rare discovery.

Lee and his team were exceptional from start to finish. Very useful advice on how to achieve our desired solution and a punctual and polite team on site. A flawless finish, in a time I couldn't believe and they tidied up at the end of every day! I have no hesitation in recommending them. Still can't believe you knocked the job out so quickly - we love it.
