ITM Brickwork repairs worn, cracked and failing mortar joints on homes across London and nearby areas. We work on façades, external walls, extensions, garden walls and other brickwork where joints have deteriorated through age, weather or previous repairs.

We remove defective mortar where required and repoint the joints with a suitable mortar and finish. On visible elevations, we also consider mortar colour, joint profile and the surrounding brickwork so that repaired areas sit naturally with the existing masonry.

What Our Brick Repointing and Joint Repairs Include

From removing failed mortar to matching the new joint finish, we repair the areas that protect and define exposed brickwork.

Mortar Joint Repointing

Deteriorated joints raked out and repointed to restore sound mortar between the bricks.

Local Joint Repairs

Cracked, loose or missing mortar repaired where full elevation repointing is not required.

Bed and Perp Joints

Horizontal bed joints and vertical perp joints repaired to restore consistent, complete joint lines.

Mortar Colour Matching

Replacement mortar matched as closely as practical to the colour and character of existing joints.

Weathered Brickwork Repairs

Exposed areas repaired where years of rain, frost and weather have weakened the mortar joints.

Joint Profile Matching

Pointing finished to suit the existing joint style and appearance of the property.

Why choose ITM Brickwork for Brick Repointing and Joint Repairs?

Good repointing starts with removing the failed mortar without unnecessary damage to the surrounding bricks. We prepare the joints to the required depth, replace missing or deteriorated mortar and keep the joint profile consistent across the repaired area.

London housing includes brickwork from many periods, so colour and finish matter as much as the repair itself. We match existing mortar and pointing as closely as practical, especially on visible elevations and local repairs. Where staining or damp has another cause, repointing alone may not solve the underlying problem, so we avoid treating every masonry issue as a pointing job.

Are Your Mortar Joints Starting to Fail?

Send us photos of the affected brickwork and we can review the condition and extent of the repointing required.

When to Involve ITM Brickwork

Contact us when mortar begins to crack, crumble or disappear from the joints, before exposed brickwork deteriorates further.

ITM Brickwork is usually required when:

  • Mortar joints are cracking, eroding or beginning to crumble

  • Existing pointing can be loosened by light scraping or brushing

  • Gaps have appeared along bed or perp joints

  • Previous patch repairs have left failed or mismatched joints

  • Weathered elevations need attention before further winter exposure

  • Damp staining or efflorescence appears alongside visibly deteriorated mortar joints

Request a Quote for Brick Repointing and Joint Repairs

Send us clear photos of the affected brickwork and tell us which elevations or walls need attention. Include the property location and approximate size of the area where possible.

We will review the condition of the joints, extent of the repair, access requirements and existing mortar finish before preparing a quote for the repointing work.
