Why Choose Us?
Why does your Rossendale property need professional repointing?
Repointing is the process of renewing the 'pointing'—the external part of mortar joints—between bricks or stones. Over decades, weathering and decay create voids in the joints, allowing water to penetrate the wall. In a town like Rawtenstall, where winter conditions can be severe, this moisture often freezes and expands, causing the faces of the bricks to break away—a process known as spalling. Professional repointing is not just about looks; it is a critical maintenance task that protects the structural integrity of your home.Preventing Damp: Deteriorated mortar is a primary cause of penetrating damp, which can ruin internal plasterwork and encourage mould growth.Structural Longevity: Properly applied mortar supports the weight of the structure and prevents individual bricks from loosening.Enhanced Kerb Appeal: Fresh, clean pointing can significantly increase the market value and attractiveness of your property.Thermal Efficiency: Filling gaps in your masonry helps to reduce drafts and improve the overall energy performance of your building.

Who We Are
Our meticulous process for lasting masonry repairs
We believe that a job worth doing is worth doing right. Our bricklaying and repointing process is designed to be thorough and long-lasting. We begin with a comprehensive roof and wall survey to identify the extent of the damage. Once on-site, we carefully 'rake out' the old, crumbling mortar to a consistent depth. This is a crucial step that many cut corners on; without proper depth, the new mortar will not bond correctly and will eventually fall out.After cleaning the joints, we apply a bespoke mortar mix that matches the strength and colour of your existing masonry. For older properties in Rossendale, we often use lime-based mortars that allow the building to 'breathe,' preventing moisture from being trapped within the walls. Finally, we finish the joints with a profile that sheds water effectively, such as a weather-struck or flush finish. We leave every site clean and tidy, ensuring your property is ready to face the Lancashire elements for decades to come.

01254 963068How do I know if my brickwork needs repointing?
Many homeowners in Lancashire ask how they can identify when it is time to call in a professional. A simple visual inspection from the ground can often reveal the early signs of masonry distress. If you notice any of the following, it is time to seek expert advice:Crumbling Mortar: If you can easily scrape away the mortar with your finger or a small tool, the joint has failed.Gaps and Cracks: Visible holes in the mortar joints are a clear sign that water is entering the structure.Damp Patches: Internal dampness on walls that face the prevailing wind often indicates pointing issues.Loose Bricks: If individual bricks feel unstable or have shifted, the structural integrity is at risk.If you are unsure, our team provides professional roof and wall surveys across Preston, Chorley, and Rawtenstall. We offer honest, transparent advice on whether a full repoint is necessary or if targeted repairs will suffice.
