Pointing is the process of repairing the mortar joints between bricks. It prevents water ingress, protects structural integrity, and improves the appearance of your property. Proper pointing reduces damp and prolongs the lifespan of walls.
Pointing repairs damaged sections of mortar, while repointing involves removing deteriorated mortar completely and replacing it with new mortar. Repointing is a more thorough solution for older or heavily weathered walls.
Typically every 15–20 years, depending on exposure to weather and wall condition. Walls in North London exposed to rain or frost may need earlier attention.
