GET A QUOTERepointing in Lytham St Annes
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 Lytham St Annes 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
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.

How much does repointing cost?
The price depends on the area to be done, how high it is, the state of the joints, access and whether scaffold is needed. A small chimney costs far less than a full elevation, and lime mortar work takes longer than cement. We do not quote blind figures, so we offer a free survey and give you a written quote based on what your property actually needs.
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.
How do I know if I need repointing?
Look for mortar that is crumbling, cracked, powdery or missing, with sand loose at the base of the wall. Open or hollow-sounding joints, gaps you can slot a coin into, and damp patches appearing inside are all signs. On chimneys, watch for loose flaunching and washed-out joints. If you are unsure, we will survey the walls for free and tell you honestly whether it needs doing yet.
Is repointing disruptive and do you need scaffolding?
Repointing is fairly low-disruption inside the house as the work is external. Chimneys and upper walls usually need scaffold or a tower for safe access, while lower work can be done off ladders. Raking out creates dust, so we sheet up and clean down as we go. We work in sections so the wall is not left fully exposed, and we clear the site each day.
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.
