BEFORE POINTING CAN BE DONE, A VERY
IMPORTANT PART OF THE THE WORK IS
PREPERATION, THIS BEGINS WITH THE
RAKING OUT OF THE OLD MORTAR

any dust or debri to remain in the joints
fine grit blasting , when the brickwork needs a deep clean
reroofing useing original hand made staffordshire blue tiles
micropourus brick and stone sealent, allowing the material to breath
REPOINTING METHODS
crack repairs useing helical stainless steel reinforcment rods
bonded with resin or cemspand grout

stoneplus 20 brick and stone sealant , micropourus allowing the material to breath
if you live in a older property and are concerned about the condition
of your cavity wall ties, you need to first determine if you have
a cavity or not, by looking at the design of the brickwork
this should give an insight to weather or not you do
if your walls are like the english bond or flemish bond, or possible
(english garden bond) this is like the english bond but the header courses
are seen around every 5 courses, this method saved money on the cost of bricks
if your house is built with this design of brickwork, it is more than likely you do not have a
cavity, if however you have the stretcher bond then it is likely you will have a cavity
if you have any concerns about your cavity wall ties
