Protecting the longevity and stability
Repointing is a crucial maintenance process for brick and stone structures, involving the renewal of the external part of mortar joints that may have deteriorated over time due to weathering and aging. Over time, the mortar between bricks or stones can weaken, leading to gaps that allow moisture to penetrate and cause potential damage. The process of repointing involves carefully removing the damaged mortar and replacing it with new mortar to restore the structure’s integrity. Repointing not only protects the building from moisture but also helps maintain the structure’s stability and prolong its lifespan. The service is especially beneficial for older buildings, as it ensures that the original appearance is preserved while maintaining the necessary strength and durability. Key steps in repointing include assessing the condition of the existing mortar, carefully removing the damaged material, applying new mortar that matches the original color and composition, and ensuring the joints are properly sealed to prevent future damage.
