About This Service
What Our Repointing Service Covers
Whether you are restoring the weathered brickwork on a period terrace, refreshing the masonry on a detached family home, or protecting the gable end of a modern extension—professional repointing is essential maintenance. It is a precise task that demands a deep understanding of masonry, the correct mortar composition, and skilled hands that respect the architectural character of your property.
At LB Home Improvements, we do not apply new mortar over failing joints just to improve appearance temporarily. We price every project accurately to ensure the job is done right. Every repointing project begins with a thorough inspection of the brickwork and mortar condition. Most importantly, the work is carried out by our own directly employed team—no subcontractors, no surprises.
Why It Matters
Our Professional Standards
We treat every property with the care it deserves, ensuring a clean site and a finish that blends seamlessly with your existing masonry. From small repair patches to full-house restorations,LB Home Improvements provides the expert craftsmanship needed to keep your walls solid and watertight for decades to come.
- We prevent water ingress that can lead to damp, frost damage, and "blown" brick faces.
- We use the correct strength and composition—including lime-based mortars for older properties—to allow your walls to breathe and move naturally.
- We carefully remove old, crumbling mortar to a consistent depth without damaging the edges of the bricks.
- Beyond protection, fresh pointing significantly improves the external appearance and "curb appeal" of your home.
