All brickwork and stonework will need pointing or repointing at some time in its life. Various signs start to show when the old pointing starts to deteriorate between the brickwork and stonework, even falling out, causing damp inside the property.
We have found over the years that people have not removed the old pointing and just repointed over the top. This means that in a very short time repointing a wall will be required again.
