Repointing Hammersmith

Repointing Hammersmith

Repointing isn’t a home maintenance task that gives many Hammersmith home owners sleepless nights. However, it is a job that will need carrying out at some point on most properties, especially older buildings.

Does your Hammersmith property need repointing?

If you’re wondering whether you need to call out a Hammersmith repointing expert, then here are some things to look for:

• can you see gaps in the mortar around the brickwork?
• are there holes in the mortar?
• have any bricks become damaged or broken?
• are you experiencing damp problems on the interior wall?

Some of these will be more obvious than others, while certain symptoms will be more urgent than others. For example, if you’ve found holes in the mortar but haven’t experienced any other issues, then this is likely to be a preventative maintenance job for a Hammersmith repointing company. However, if your walls are already damp internally, then your pointing may already be failing, and you’ll need to pay for repairs to the interior of your home, as well as engaging the Hammersmith repointing firm to take care of the outside wall.

Still not sure?

If you’re not sure whether your Hammersmith home needs to be repointed or not, the best thing to do is call a local repointing firm. They will be able to examine your walls and give you their assessment of the situation, as well as recommending whether or not you need to have repointing carried out.
