Repointing involves the removal of old or damaged mortar between bricks, stones, or roof tiles and replacing it with new, fresh mortar. This process strengthens the structure, prevents water from seeping in, and improves the overall look of your property. Repointing is essential for maintaining the integrity of your building, especially for older homes where mortar joints are more likely to have suffered from wear and tear over the years.
When mortar joints begin to crack or crumble, it can lead to significant issues such as:
- Water Penetration: Damaged mortar allows water to seep through, potentially causing leaks, dampness, and mold growth inside your property.
- Structural Instability: As mortar weakens, it compromises the structural integrity of walls or roof components, making them more susceptible to damage.
- Aesthetic Decline: Crumbling or missing mortar detracts from the visual appeal of your home or building, making it look aged or poorly maintained.
Our Repointing Services
At Resilient Roofing Ltd, we provide comprehensive repointing services for both residential and commercial properties. Our expert team has the skills and experience necessary to repoint your roof, chimney, or walls with precision, ensuring a strong, durable, and aesthetically pleasing finish. Whether your property requires minor touch-ups or a full repointing service, we’re here to help protect and enhance the longevity of your building.
Our repointing services include:
- Roof Repointing: The mortar between roof tiles or slates is essential for keeping your roof watertight and stable. Over time, exposure to harsh weather conditions can cause the mortar to crack or deteriorate, leading to potential leaks or tile displacement. We carefully remove the old mortar and replace it with high-quality materials that ensure your roof remains weather-resistant and structurally sound.
- Chimney Repointing: Chimneys are particularly vulnerable to mortar erosion due to their exposure to wind, rain, and extreme temperatures. Our chimney repointing service ensures that your chimney remains stable and free from water penetration, preventing further damage to your roof or property.
- Wall Repointing: If the mortar between the bricks or stones in your exterior walls is deteriorating, it can affect the overall stability and appearance of your property. We offer professional wall repointing services that restore the strength and beauty of your home’s brickwork, protecting it from water damage and enhancing curb appeal.
