What does it cost in Northern Ireland?
We price brickwork, pointing and render repairs in Northern Ireland 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?
While the scaffold is up we look at everything in reach (gutters, fascias, chimneys, window heads) and report it, so you can decide whether to add it before access is lost.
Common questions
Which council areas in Northern Ireland do you cover for brickwork, pointing and render repairs?
All 11: Antrim and Newtownabbey, Ards and North Down, Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon, Belfast, Causeway Coast and Glens, Derry City and Strabane, Fermanagh and Omagh, Lisburn and Castlereagh, Mid Ulster, Mid and East Antrim, Newry, Mourne and Down.
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.
Can you combine this with other scaffold work?
Yes. Fabric repairs are often programmed with roofing or external decoration to share access costs.
