HOUSE & BRICKWORK REPOINTING IN BELFAST
Mortar joints are continually exposed to rain, wind and changing weather conditions. Over time, mortar can crack, crumble or fall away, leaving sections of brickwork requiring attention. House repointing removes deteriorated mortar from the affected joints and replaces it to restore the finish of the exterior masonry.
Weathered Mortar Joints
Mortar can gradually deteriorate through continued exposure to the weather. Areas with visibly worn, cracked or crumbling joints can be assessed to establish how much repointing is required.
Exterior Brickwork
Repointing can restore the mortar joints across exterior brick walls while retaining the existing brickwork wherever it remains in suitable condition.
Localised & Larger Areas
Not every property requires every wall to be repointed. Work can range from specific deteriorated sections to larger elevations depending on the condition of the existing mortar.
HOUSE REPOINTING FAQs
Answers to common questions about repointing exterior walls, deteriorated mortar and residential brickwork throughout Belfast and Greater Belfast.
What is house repointing?
House repointing involves removing deteriorated mortar from the joints between bricks or masonry and replacing it with new mortar. It is used where existing pointing has become weathered, cracked, loose or damaged.
How can I tell if the pointing on my house is deteriorating?
Look for mortar that is visibly cracked, crumbling, recessed or missing from between the bricks. Different elevations can deteriorate at different rates, so some areas of a property may require attention before others.
Does the whole house need to be repointed?
Not always. If deterioration is concentrated in particular areas, it may be possible to repoint only those sections. Where the mortar is extensively deteriorated across several elevations, more comprehensive house repointing may be appropriate.
Why does mortar deteriorate over time?
Exterior mortar is continually exposed to weather and moisture. Age and prolonged exposure can gradually cause joints to deteriorate, particularly on more exposed sections of a property.
Can damaged bricks be repaired while the house is being repointed?
MPM also provides masonry repairs. If damaged areas of brickwork are identified during the assessment, the required masonry work can be considered alongside the repointing.
Can repointing help with weathered exterior walls?
Repointing renews deteriorated mortar joints and restores the finish between the bricks. If there are other problems affecting the wall, these should also be identified rather than assuming the mortar is the only cause.
Can you inspect my house before deciding how much repointing is needed?
Yes. MPM provides free inspections and quotations so the condition of the existing mortar can be assessed and the extent of the required repointing discussed beforehand.
