GET A QUOTERepointing in Weeton
Sound pointing is what stops rain, frost and wind getting behind your brickwork and into the fabric of the building. Once the joints go soft, powdery or open, moisture gets in and the problem spreads. Repointing rakes the old mortar out cleanly and packs the joints with a properly mixed mortar, finished to shed water. Working across Weeton and the surrounding villages, KSB Roofing Solutions repoints chimneys, ridges, verges and full elevations, matching the colour and profile of the existing work.
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.

Should I use lime or cement mortar for repointing?
It depends on the property. Older brick and stone are usually soft and need a breathable lime mortar that lets moisture escape and flexes with the wall. Hard cement on soft old brick traps damp and causes the brick faces to spall and crack off. Harder modern brick can take a cement-based mix. We assess the age and material and recommend the right mortar for your walls.
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 We do not quote blind figures, so we offer a free survey and give you a written quote based on what your property actually needs.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.
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.
