Repointing
Repointing is the process of renewing the external part of mortar joints in masonry construction. Over time, weather conditions and environmental factors can cause the mortar between bricks or stones to deteriorate, leading to potential structural issues. This degradation not only affects the aesthetic appeal of the building but also its integrity and durability.
Our Repointing Process
At ATR Roofing & Guttering, we follow a meticulous and detailed process to ensure the highest quality repointing services. Our process includes:
Inspection and Assessment
Our experts begin with a thorough inspection of the building to assess the condition of the mortar joints. This step is crucial to determine the extent of the repointing required and to identify any underlying issues that need to be addressed.
Preparation
We take great care in preparing the area for repointing. This involves:
Removing old mortar
We carefully remove the deteriorated mortar using specialized tools to avoid damaging the surrounding masonry.
Cleaning the joints:
The joints are then cleaned to ensure that the new mortar will bond effectively.
Mixing the Mortar
We use high-quality materials to mix the mortar, ensuring it matches the existing mortar in colour and composition. This step is vital for achieving a seamless and aesthetically pleasing finish.
Applying the New Mortar
Our skilled technicians expertly apply the new mortar into the cleaned joints. We take care to compact the mortar properly and shape it to match the original joint profiles.
Final Touches and Clean-Up
After the mortar has been applied, we perform a final inspection to ensure that the work meets our high standards. We then clean the area, removing any debris and ensuring your property is left in pristine condition.
