Case Studies
This Georgian property required a complete removal of unsuitable cement mortar and replaced with breathable lime and sand.
This very large limestone wall needed completely repointing in a suitable lime mix that could withstand the elements.
A small brick wall that was repointed in lime after removing the cement repairs and over pointing.
A limestone wall with very unsuitable ribbon cement pointing. All of it had to be carefully removed and the correct lime mortar replaced.
This stone property was in a very poor state due to neglect over a long period of time. It required a complete removal of all the old cement mortar and new lime mortar applied. A large amount of the stone under the lower windows required a rebuild.
This sandstone chapel was completely repointed on all sides. Unfortunately a lot of the stone was damaged and to soft to use and had to be replaced. Soft lime mix was used to help with the soft sandstone.
Examples of damaged brick due to inappropriate mortar mix and weathering which causes the brick to erode and leave the cement mortar.
This small gable end needed the cement mortar removed and replaced with a hot lime mix. The photo is a before and after image.
