Lime pointing
The right mortar for pre-1920 homes. Lime breathes and moves with the wall — cement on old brick blows the faces off.
Period properties
Lime pointing in Rochdale, Oldham, Bury and Greater Manchester
For Victorian, Edwardian and older homes built with soft brick and lime mortar. Cement pointing on these walls traps moisture and blows the face off the brick. We use natural hydraulic lime (NHL 3.5) or a lime putty mix depending on exposure, and protect the work from frost and fast drying while it cures.
