Benefits of Lime Pointing
Lime mortar allows moisture to escape from stonework, reducing the risk of trapped damp. Its flexibility accommodates natural movement and helps prevent the damage commonly caused by modern cement-based mortars.
Repairs & Repointing
Failed and inappropriate mortar joints carefully removed and replaced with suitable lime mortars, providing long term care for masonry structures.
Appropriate Use
Lime pointing is ideally suited to older buildings and period properties where the original mortar was lime-based, it is commonly seen in heritage work but can also be used in modern construction.
