Brickwork Repair, Repointing, Restoration Work Folkestone
Few things are as visually striking as bricks that carry genuine character, yet as bricks age and that character develops, the mortar holding everything together often begins to deteriorate, compromising both the appearance and the structural integrity of the brickwork.
At Folkestone Builders, we offer a thorough and reliable service covering all manner of interior and exterior brickwork repairs, from addressing damaged brickwork through to reinforcing existing brickwork wherever it is needed.
Brickwork repairs and repointing bring brick and stone walls back to sound condition. Repointing tackles failed mortar joints by raking out old, weathered or cracked mortar to a solid depth, then repacking and finishing with a carefully matched mortar mix and colour. Lime mortar is used as standard on period properties and solid wall construction.
Brick repairs encompass spalled or damaged brickwork, brick matching and replacement, blockwork, lintel repair and replacement above openings, rebuilding sections that have failed, and crack repairs where bricks have shifted or fractured. Matched bricks and mortar are used throughout, ensuring every repair sits seamlessly within the existing wall.
We also offer a range of additional building services across Folkestone, including structural wall work, extension building and much more besides.
