All weathered, aged & uneven mortar is removed with care from mortar joints before being flushed clean to allow for new mortar matched like for like or as per original finish. The Repointing is completed by refilling or 'repointing' all mortar joints & followed by a soft acid wash once mortar has set.
Our repointing & tuck pointing service process respects original craftsmanship, heritage restoration & local council requirements.

Our repointing, tuck pointing & sandstone maintenance service process respects original craftsmanship, heritage restoration & local council requirements.
We replace, repair & rebuild areas where undesirable or collapsed masonry is present. This includes wall panels, brick piers & staircases.
We’ll soon be expanding our services to include professional sandstone repairs and replacements.
DPC chemical injections provide a modern, cost-effective, and highly efficient solution to stop rising damp and protect your property.
We can replace & or repair defective damp proof course membranes for problem areas impacted by rising damp & water ingress.
The process can involve removal of brickwork, replacing the damp proof course membrane effectively & relaying brickwork as per original finish.
Damp proof courses are there to provide protection of damp travelling & rising in cavity brick buildings.
The original membrane can be defective due to age, movement, incorrect placement or other changed conditions.
We install high quality remedial wall ties & apply crack stitching products to problem areas reducing further movement of brickwork.
Cracks, bowing & warping in masonry can occur for multiple reasons:
Settling in the land or building also known as subsidence
Rusted concrete & steel lintel bars
Poor drainage
Incorrect footings
Pre 1990's wall ties which have failed
We replace rusted lintel bars & repair archways to avoid further cracking and structural issues.
Cracks, warping & dropped arches are common in these vulnerable areas where a lintel bar or masonry arch has been installed or layed above an entrance, window, doorway or other openings.
We provide further brick cleaning, cavity cleaning & waterproofing protective solutions.
Brick & stone work is vulnerable to a large range of stains from natural efflorescence to man made chemicals which can be permanent.
Brick tinting is the process of applying a brick stain to your brickwork.
Tinting is ideal when bricklayers have used a different brick for an extension or when a customer wants to modernise the look of their property. Brick tinting is permanent but can fade in direct sunlight over time. Limited colour options can be achieved correctly.
We offer scaffolding solutions for redidential work (up to four metres in height). For larger projects we can recommend a reputable third party scaffolding team.
Safety & communication are paramount while projects that require scaffolding are taking place. Communication with your local council, ausgrid, tenants & neighbours is something we take into account and can oversee.
