GET A QUOTERepointing in Barrow Nook
Repointing is the job of raking out old, failed mortar between bricks or stone and replacing it with fresh mortar that keeps water out and holds the wall together. Over time weather, frost and age break the pointing down, leaving open joints that let damp track inside. As a Lancashire firm covering Barrow Nook and the surrounding area, KSB Roofing Solutions handles repointing on chimneys, gable walls, ridges and verges, matching mortar type and finish to the property.
What the work involves
A repointing job starts with raking out the old mortar to a consistent depth, roughly two to three times the joint width, using hand tools or a raking disc so the surrounding brick is not damaged. The joints are then brushed and dampened down before we press in the fresh mortar in layers and iron it to the right profile, whether that is flush, bucket-handle or weatherstruck. We mix the mortar to match the existing sand and colour so the repair blends in rather than standing out.

What does repointing a wall or chimney cost?
It varies with the size of the job, the height and access, the condition of the existing mortar and the mortar type required. Chimney repointing differs from a whole gable, and scaffold adds cost where it is needed. Rather than guess, we come out, look at the walls, and provide a free no-obligation quote so you know the figure before any work begins.
How many days does a repointing job take?
Small jobs like a chimney or a patch of failed joints are often done in a day or two. Larger walls take longer, as raking out to a sound depth is the slow part and cannot be rushed without weakening the result. Weather and mortar type also affect the pace. We will set out an honest timescale when we quote so there are no surprises.
What are the signs that pointing needs redoing?
Common signs are receding joints, mortar you can rub out with a finger, cracks running along the pointing, and vegetation or moss taking hold in the gaps. Inside, you might see damp on chimney breasts or along external walls. Older and exposed properties suffer first. A free survey settles it, and we will not push repointing on joints that are still sound.
Will repointing make a mess and require scaffold?
Most of the disruption is outside rather than in. Higher areas and chimneys generally require scaffold for safety and a proper job, and we allow for that in the quote. There is some dust from cutting the old mortar out, which we manage with sheeting and regular clearing up. We keep access tidy and leave the joints and the ground around them clean when finished.
Is your work guaranteed and are you insured?
Yes, KSB Roofing Solutions is fully insured and we stand behind the workmanship on our repointing. We use the correct mortar for your walls and rake out and fill the joints properly, which is what makes the repair last. We will talk through what is covered when we quote, so you know exactly where you stand before the work starts.
