Usually the best solution to repairing bricks is to replace them completely. It’s a lot of work, but will improve the life of the wall and upgrade the area.
We source out the closest matching brick to the one on your home, then we cut out the damaged bricks, careful to only remove the ones that are damaged and install the fresh bricks with the correct mortar.

We will inspect the wall and grind out the cracked or damaged mortar joints, careful not to damage the bricks, and install fresh mortar to match the original style and colour of the wall – this work is very labour intensive and tedious, due to the removal of the mortar.
We fully prepare the wall by removing loose pieces of old parging, fill any gaps that need it and clean it.
We then install a uniform coat of parging across the wall and give it a sponge finish.
We will lift any loose stone pieces and reinstall them with the correct, premium mortar for stone. If any require replacing, we’ll source the matching stone and replace the pieces. New mortar is installed to keep the stones from moving around and water penetrating. Another option is to install the stone using High Performance Bedding (HPB) instead of mortar.
If you’re looking to expand a window or door, brick one up, etc – we will source the closest matching bricks to the house, even if it’s double-brick and install a steel lintel by code to support the wall. Finally we will install fresh mortar to match the existing colour and style
