What is Mortar?

Mortar is the material that sits between the individual bricks of a wall and structurally holds all the bricks together. Mortar today is modernly made from a cement-like substance and is essential for all brick and mortar structures, especially during restoration or repair work. In earlier times, a lime substance was used to hold bricks together. Over the years, the lime mortar tends to break down more easily meaning your brick home can crumble, decay, or loosen with age. This can cause serious structural issues and can make a big impact on your home’s value, as well as your safety while living inside of it.

What is mortar repointing?

Mortar repointing, also known as brick pointing, mortar pointing or brick mortar repair, involves grinding out old joints and filling the decayed joints and gaps in between the bricks in a wall and injecting new mortar into these joints using specialized mortar tools leaving you with safer, stronger mortar. This operation is one that demands a high level of skill from a specially trained tradesman. Poor quality mortar pointing can cause further damage to your wall and may also look like a very obvious repair, which can decrease the value of your property.

When does a building need brick repointing?

Mortar pointing or brick repointing services are required when the joints have eroded to a depth greater than the width. If you notice signs of mortar damage, it should be repointed to prevent further issues and problems.

Re-pointing is carried out when the existing mortar joints have broken down and started to crumble, causing holes in the brickwork or when there is structural damage such as mortar cracking or brick cracking.

What causes damage to Mortar?

A combination of extreme weather conditions, excess moisture (often from sprinklers or watering systems) and a weak mortar mix causes masonry work and mortar to break down and fall out . Both bricks and mortar are subject to fretting or crumbling.

Repointing your property is a particularly important part of maintaining and protecting your brickwork. Failing to replace mortar when it starts to fret away can lead to severe structural and moisture issues.
