What is repointing?
Over time, weathering and decay can cause spaces in the joints between masonry units (usually bricks). This can result in water entering the cracks in the brickwork causing significant damage. Re-pointing, which involves grinding out the old mortar and replacing it with new, restores the external part of the mortar joints in the construction.
