WHAT ARE THE STEPS FOR REPOINTING BRICKWORK IN LLANDUDNO?

Repointing is a time consuming process and may involve working at considerable height, depending on your property type. A visual survey is the first step in this process and will determine the magnitude of the remedial work required on your home. This will allow them to give you a price quote for the renovation and repair. It is always best to get 2 or 3 estimates from different repointing specialists in Llandudno and examine the standard of service that each of them provides.

A further site survey might be necessary once you accept a price quote and might include the use of step ladders, or possibly even scaffolding, to get to inaccessible parts of your home. A quotation after the second survey could be higher due to issues identified in this more meticulous inspection. The older your structure is, the more likely it will be necessary to repoint the mortar, and this is especially true for those homes in Llandudno which are over sixty years old.

A decent repointing company in Llandudno will discuss any issues found with your house and explore the best options for repair before beginning any actual work. It's quite possible that your repointing specialist will require the erection of scaffolding so as to have a secure working platform while doing the work on your home. As soon as this is up then some type of protective sheeting will be secured in place. This might be plastic sheeting to collect any dirt and debris that's created during the process.

Cables and pipework may need to be removed or adjusted to enable access to the walls behind them. When the project has been completed and all repointing work undertaken these these will be secured back in place.

To allow the repointers to get to the affected brickwork, any rendering, paint or pebble-dash will now have to be removed before work can commence. Once this has been done the bricks can be diligently sanded and cleaned to establish a uniform surface to work on.

A professional Llandudno repointing company will be glad to mock up a small test panel on your property to allow you to choose the various mortar styles that are available, (Flush, Weather Struck, Recessed or Tuck pointing). This small test panel will enable you to visualise how each of the techniques compares with one another and also which suits your style of house best.

The joints in the brickwork are now thoroughly raked out to remove the old, crumbling mortar and clear the spaces between the bricks. This is a time consuming stage and involves the grinding or chipping away of old mortar and brushing away all the dust and loose debris to provide a good platform for the application of new mortar. Special attention is made around doors and windows because any movement in the brickwork could lead to issues with their opening and closing.

Before fresh mortar is applied, the brickwork will be damped down to stop it from setting too rapidly. This helps create a strong joint by keeping the mortar flexible and preventing cracks. During the application of the mortar there will be smears and some excess mortar on the brickwork that can look messy, but this will be removed once it has dried out. A wire brush will be used to clean the areas that have been completed before moving on to the next part of the wall requiring work.

During this stage the need for any brick replacement, chimney repairs or lead flashing replacement will be carried out by the contractor.

Any rendering, paint or other wall covering that you require will be put back once all remedial work has been completed. The final phase of the project will see all pipes, cables and other fixtures fixed back into their rightful locations, work platforms and scaffolding disassembled and all building waste removed from the site.
