Brick Restoration · Wimbledon Park

Brick Restoration in Wimbledon Park

Brick restoration around Wimbledon Park is usually a combination job: spalled brick faces from decades of cement pointing, stepped cracking at bay corners from clay movement, and a frontage that has never been properly cleaned. Fixing one without the others rarely gives you the result you wanted.

Local property types

Brick Restoration for Wimbledon Park homes

Edwardian and inter-war bay-fronted terraces and semis in London stock and red facing brick, on the streets between the park, Durnsford Road and Arthur Road.

We survey the whole elevation, cut out and replace the bricks that are past saving with matched replacements, stitch and repoint the cracking, and finish in a mortar mixed to the original. The repair should be invisible from the pavement - that is the standard we work to.

FAQ

Brick Restoration in Wimbledon Park - your questions

Light spalling can often be left and simply repointed correctly so it stops getting worse. Where the face has blown off deeply, we cut the brick out and replace it with a match - a facing repair over a failed brick just falls off again.

We recently repointed the front and side elevations of a 1930s Tudor-style semi in Hampton, replacing cracked bricks and removing old cement patch repairs. It's the same approach we take on brick restoration in Wimbledon Park.

"Nick repointed the front & side walls of our 1930s semi in October 2024. Nick took great care preparing the walls, raking out all the old mortar which was heavily weathered and crumbling in places, replacing several cracked bricks and removing some previous work which had been patched with cement. Everything was washed down and left clean and tidy. The job was completed on time & to budget. We are delighted with the result."
