Brick Cleaning in Balham

Case study of brick cleaning and flush finish lime mortar brick pointing restoration in Balham.

Brick Cleaning Restoration

As the job required brick repointing as well, we had raked out old brick pointing. Next, we cleaned a brickwork using a steam cleaning technique.

Lime Mortar

When the brickwork was clean and ready for repointing we have used a lime mortar, which should be used in the repair and restoration of brickwork.

Flush Finish Pointing

From many available types of brick pointing, the client has chosen a flush pointing. What distinguishes this type of pointing is that it gives a rough “old look” appearance.

Another London property was restored to its original appearance and condition by S.J. Pointer Brick Restoration.

Our Reviews

Szczepan and his team were recommended to us for the quality of their work and we have been delighted with the outcome. We needed our house re-pointing included all of our garden walls and the project has been split over the last two summers. The attention to detail is exceptional and we were genuinely surprised at the amount of preparation required to rake out and prepare the brickwork before the pointing could commence. Likewise the cleaning and dressing afterwards has produced an exceptional finish which looks superb. There will be companies that offer to do the job cheaper but if you need the comfort of knowing that you your successors in the property and many others beyond them wont need to worry about the pointing then Szczepan and his company are the ones you can rely upon.

Amazing. I had a big problem with damp because of a wall that although had been repointed prior to my buying the house was now all crumbling and falling out. Leaving big gaps in the mortar. It had not been repointed properly to the correct depth. S J Pointer have done an amazing job removing and recutting all the joints to the correct depth and reinstating with some beautiful repointing work. This now looks like a new wall that I'm sure will last and be water tight for many years . I truely recommend this company to anyone who is thinking about having restoration work done on any brick or stonework.

Szczepan and his team work very professionally and diligently. The end result looks great - see before and after picture of the back of the house - and the work was done at pace. I am very happy to recommend him and will book him again for the final tranche of work next year.

Szczepan and his lovely team did a fantastic job at our property. Our brick work had completely disintegrated and we were experiencing leaks. Within a day, our house was watertight again. Communications were excellent and the job was done quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend SJ Pointer!

Stephan and his team were exceptional from start to finish. A skilled craftsman who takes pride in his work and the finished product was truly outstanding; I would highly recommend SJ Pointing.

S. J Pointer were great. They attended promptly to provide a quote and gave great advice in the process. The work they carried out was exceptional, the newly cleaned brickwork looks absolutely stunning. I would use again and 100% recommend their services. Premium service and clearly very experienced and great at their job.
