Pointing and repointing in Halifax
Halifax is one of the great stone towns and almost all of it is gritstone in lime — the terraces of Boothtown, Ovenden, Pellon and Illingworth, the big Victorian villas of Skircoat Green, Savile Park and King Cross, the mill housing along the Hebble. Cement has been put on most of it since the 1960s and it is now the main cause of blown faces and damp walls in the town.
We rake cement out by hand and repoint in lime, matched to the stone and brushed to show the aggregate. Halifax has extensive conservation areas — Savile Park, Akroydon, the town centre — where the joint profile has to match the original. Forty minutes from Rochdale on the M62.
