What does it cost in the East Midlands?

We price brickwork, pointing and render repairs in the East Midlands after a survey rather than from a guide range, because the wall area, the mortar needed and access vary from building to building. Send us the details and we will arrange a visit.

How do we deliver it?

We match the repair to the wall. Lime mortar on soft older brick, compatible render systems and like-for-like bricks where they are visible.

Can you deal with structural cracking?

We carry out crack repairs to an engineer's design. If cracking suggests movement, we recommend an engineer before any work is priced.

Do you use lime mortar?

Where the wall needs it, yes, usually on older solid walls. Hard cement pointing on soft brick can trap moisture and damage the brick face.
