Brickwork and repointing is the trade this company is named after, and it's where we started. Mortar doesn't last forever — depending on age, mix and exposure, it typically needs attention every 25–40 years — and once it starts crumbling, cracking or washing out, damp and further brick damage follow fast. We repoint chimneys, gable ends and full elevations, repair and rebuild damaged brickwork, and build new garden walls, retaining walls, piers and footings across Stafford, Stoke-on-Trent, Cheshire and Birmingham, always matching mortar colour and pointing style to the age and character of the existing brick rather than leaving an obvious patch.
Choosing The Right Brickwork & Repointing
Repointing & Restoration
Old, crumbling or eroded mortar raked out and replaced with a colour-matched mix and pointing style (flush, recessed, weathered or bucket-handle) to suit the property's age.
Brick Repair
Spalled, cracked or frost-damaged bricks cut out and replaced individually, matched to the existing brick where possible so repairs don't stand out.
Garden & Retaining Walls
New boundary, garden and retaining walls built to properly specified footings — essential on sloped plots where a retaining wall is holding back real load, not just decorative.
Piers, Footings & Blockwork
Structural footings, brick piers and blockwork for extensions, garden walls, and groundworks — including commercial hardstanding and groundworks projects.

How It Works
Survey & Quote
We assess the extent of the repointing or repair needed, match mortar/brick samples, and quote clearly.
Rake Out & Prepare
Old mortar carefully raked out to the right depth (never just skimmed over the top), damaged brick removed where needed.
Repoint / Rebuild & Finish
New mortar or brick laid, pointing style finished to match, area cleaned down on completion.
Typical timescale: A chimney or single elevation typically takes 1–3 days; full-house repointing or a new garden/retaining wall project usually runs 3–7 days depending on scale.
What Homeowners Say
A waterlogged, unusable turfed area at our commercial site was transformed into a clean, well-drained hardstanding. The team worked around our opening hours, communicated well throughout, and left everything tidy.
Converted our single car drive into space for three cars, finished in just three days. Friendly team, and great with our nervous dog too.
Brickwork & Repointing Questions Answered
Common signs include mortar that's soft, crumbly, or missing between bricks; damp patches appearing on internal walls; and visibly eroded or "hollow" looking joints, particularly on chimneys and older properties. If in doubt, we offer a free assessment.
Yes — mortar colour, sand type and pointing style are matched to your property wherever possible, so a repointed section blends in rather than standing out as an obvious repair.
Both. Retaining walls need a different footing specification depending on the height and load behind them, and we design and build to suit — this isn't a job to have done without proper footings, as a failed retaining wall can be a serious and costly problem.
Yes — alongside residential brickwork, we've carried out commercial groundworks and hardstanding projects, including work completed outside business hours to avoid disrupting day-to-day operations.
We sheet and protect surrounding areas, and clear away all mortar debris and dust as we go — the aim is to leave your property as tidy as we found it, chimney and scaffold work included.
