Mortar Pointing

Re-Pointing a tired frontage

Bunbury

Recently we completed a re-mortar pointing job on a home in South Bunbury.

The home is in the process of a renovation with newer additions along the rear and carports.

The renovations were carried out using a similar style brick, which left the original section needing some work to restore it and blend it in.

The original mortar was in poor shape and had fretted quite badly with some areas having completely crumbled away leaving gaps in the brickwork where bricks had fallen out, these bricks were reinstated and lintels installed to the underfloor access area.

White mortar was used to try and replicate the original mortar colour, with a black mortar used below floor level.

The original garden beds to the front elevation were removed some years back and unfortunately the waterproofing used has adhered well to the bricks and was unable to be completely removed.

Waterproofing and render that were behind a previously installed garden bed.

Well done to all the trades involved and thanks to the clients for allowing us to complete out the work.
