Lime Pointing

We specialise in traditional lime pointing and repointing for stone buildings. Our experienced stonemasons use traditional lime mortars and techniques to preserve the integrity and breathability of your stonework.

Lime pointing is essential for maintaining the health of traditional stone buildings. Unlike modern cement mortars, lime mortars allow moisture to move naturally through the stonework, preventing damage from trapped water and frost action.

Our lime pointing services include complete repointing of deteriorated mortar joints, raking out failed pointing, and applying new lime mortar. We carefully match the colour, texture and profile of existing pointing to ensure the new pointing correctly matches the look and feel of the building

Before starting work, we’ll examine the condition of your existing pointing, identify the appropriate lime mortar specification, and recommend the most suitable approach for your building’s specific requirements.
