Repointing in Bramhall

Bramhall is largely detached and semi-detached houses from the 1930s to the 1970s, with a handful of older villas near the village and around Bramhall Park. Brick throughout, but a wide range of it — soft reds, hard engineering bricks, buff and rustic facings — and the pointing has to suit the brick. A hard mix on a soft 1930s red is how you get spalling.

We look at the brick first and quote a mix and joint profile to suit. Typical jobs are full fronts, gables and the tall chimneys on the bigger houses. Bramhall Village has a conservation area. About fifty minutes from Rochdale, which is fine for anything over a day or two.
