REPOINTING BRICKWORK
AVONPRESS Design & Build are experts at repointing brickwork. We repoint all kinds of property and repointing older Heritage and Victorian brickwork is what we like to do best.
​
Pointing brickwork is an essential part of property maintenance as you need your property to weather the elements and of course repointed brickwork all looks far better.
Most of the UK aging housing stock is in dire need of brickwork pointing, particullary to the upper floors and roof levels. In many cases chimney stacks are just sitting on top of the house with little of the mortar that hold the bricks together.
Repointing brickwork should be high on the priority list when renovating a house. Missing or damaged mortar is a common source of leaks and a cause of damp in homes in need of wider renovation. Repointing brickwork involves carefully repacking the mortar sitting between the individual bricks, or stone blocks, that make up the exterior skin of your home. Although many homeowners try DIY repointing, given the skills and requirement for working at heights it is a job best outsourced to the professionals.
When it comes to repointing brickwork costs just get in touch with AVONPRESS and we will be happy to provide you with a free quote for any type of repointing service plus the scaffolding if required.
