Examine your outside walls and try to spot any visible damage that can be easily seen with the naked eye. If troublesome areas can be swiftly recognised by such a cursory inspection, then the likelihood is that you'll need some repointing. Most of the time you will be able to see quite clearly any physical signs of damage, but in places that are out of reach, such as chimney stacks or under eaves; you may need the services of a specialist to assist you.

You also need to consider the issues of safety that crumbling or cracked mortar could potentially cause. The structural strength of your Rugby house depends on the integrity of the mortar and bricks, and badly crumbling sections can adversely have an impact on this. In higher structures and homes with chimneys, any weakness in the integrity of the building can have major implications in respect to property damages and risk of injury.

A trustworthy brick repointing specialist in Rugby will quickly identify any areas that require possible replacement and offer a service to refurbish the brickwork while doing the repointing.
