What is pointing and why is it important?
Pointing is the technique used in repairing jointing between
bricks. When aging mortar joints crack and disintegrate, the damaged mortar is
removed by hand or with a tool and then restored with fresh mortar, preferably
with the same type as the original.
The importance of pointing to a properties ability to hold in heat cannot be underestimated! If it is not taken care of, it will allow:
- external cold air and
rainwater inside the property resulting in mould and damp spots - heat to leave the
property irrespective of the internal temperature - movement of the
brickwork - increase the properties
carbon footprint
Missing pointing especially around windows and doors is particularly an issue as they are prone to heat loss.

Brick restoration refers to restoring both the aesthetic of the brick all while fixing the protective properties. Considering that each house or building is different, each project varies slightly. The common issues that need to be addressed are wear, fading and decay.

visual appeal of a building is to use brick tinting. Kevin Nye Brickwork and
