Cracked Brick and Mortar Repairs
External Wall Cracked Brick and Mortar Repairs Done Right
At DB Roofing and Building Maintenance, we carry out high-quality cracked brick and mortar repairs for external walls. Whether it’s due to weathering, settling, or old age, visible cracks in your brickwork or pointing can let in moisture and affect the integrity of your home. We offer clean, professional repairs that blend seamlessly with your existing brickwork — all backed by our trusted 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Why It’s Important to Repair Cracks in Brick and Mortar
Cracks in your external walls are not just cosmetic. If left untreated, they can allow rainwater to seep into the structure, leading to damp patches, internal damage, and in severe cases, structural movement. Small issues can quickly turn into costly repairs if ignored — especially in areas exposed to wind and rain.
We identify the cause of the cracking, remove any failed mortar or loose bricks, and carry out precise repairs that protect your home from the elements and restore a smart, secure finish.
Our Cracked Brick and Mortar Repair Services Include:
- Repairing hairline and larger cracks in external walls
- Raking out and replacing damaged mortar joints
- Stitching and reseating loose bricks
- Colour-matched mortar for a tidy, professional finish
- Small patch repointing for localised damage
- Crack sealing with breathable, weatherproof materials
- Inspection of roofline or flashing areas for related causes
- Clean-up and full waste removal after completion
We work with care to ensure minimal disruption to your brickwork’s appearance — no mess, no mismatched repairs.
