GET A QUOTERepointing in Cuerden
Older and exposed homes suffer most from failed pointing, with driving rain finding every open joint and washing mortar back out year after year. Repointing is a careful job rather than a quick smear over the top: the raking-out and mortar mix matter as much as the finish. KSB Roofing Solutions covers Cuerden and nearby, repointing walls, chimneys and roofline joints, and we always advise against hard cement on soft older brick that needs a breathable lime mortar.
What the work involves
We work section by section so the wall is never left fully open to the weather. After raking out and cleaning the joints, the brickwork is wetted to stop it drawing moisture out of the fresh mortar too fast, which is what causes weak, dusty joints. The mortar is packed in, left to firm up, then tooled to the chosen finish. On the roofline we repoint ridge tiles, verges and bedding, often bedding loose tiles back down at the same time.

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.
Do you offer any guarantee and do you have insurance?
We are fully insured for the work we carry out, and we back the quality of our repointing. A lasting job comes from raking out to a sound depth and using a suitable, well-mixed mortar, not from patching over the surface. We are happy to explain the cover and what we guarantee at the quoting stage so everything is clear up front.
What is the difference between lime and cement repointing?
Lime mortar is softer and breathable, so it suits older and traditional buildings where a rigid cement mix would do damage by trapping water and forcing it through the brick instead of the joint. Cement mortar is stronger and fine for many modern properties. Matching the mortar to the wall matters for both longevity and the fabric of the building, and we will advise on which is correct for yours.
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 long does repointing take?
It depends on the area and the mortar. A chimney might take a day or two, while a full elevation runs to several days once raking out, filling and tooling are allowed for. Lime mortar needs longer because it cures more slowly and is best worked in cooler, damp conditions. We give you a realistic timescale with your quote once we have seen the job.
