Brickwork Repair, Repointing, Restoration Work Birkenhead
There is nothing quite as striking as bricks with genuine character, yet as brickwork matures and develops its distinctive appeal, the mortar often begins to deteriorate, compromising not only the visual appearance but also the structural integrity of the masonry itself.
At Birkenhead Builders, we offer a complete service for the repair of all forms of internal and external brickwork, encompassing the remediation of damaged masonry and the reinforcement of existing brickwork where necessary.
Brickwork repairs and repointing restore the condition of brick and stone walls to their former quality. Repointing involves the renewal of failed mortar joints by carefully raking out old, weathered or cracked mortar to a structurally sound depth, then repacking and finishing with a precisely matched mortar mix and colour. We use lime mortar on period properties and solid wall constructions to ensure authenticity and breathability.
Brick repairs address spalled or damaged brickwork, brick matching and replacement, blockwork, lintel repair and replacement above openings, rebuilding of failed sections, and crack repairs where bricks have shifted or fractured. Throughout all repair work, we use carefully matched bricks and mortar to ensure repairs blend seamlessly into the existing wall.
We offer additional building services in Birkenhead including structural wall work, extension building and more.
If you would like a professional estimate for repairing the brickwork at your property, call our Birkenhead team on 0800 161 5815. We would be delighted to assist.
