The Shoots & Leaves team are used to working with varying types of bricks, bonds and mortar types. We are selective in the bricks that are laid, particularly when using re-claimed materials.
Based in West London, we know that London holds one of the UK's heaviest concentrations of Victorian and Edwardian homes. These builds need different techniques to modern construction, and we have the experience to repair and restore both classical and modern brickwork.
Whether you want to enhance the appeal of your home or safeguard its exterior from weathering, we tailor the work to what the wall actually needs.
Pointing and repointing
Pointing is essential to structural integrity, not just appearance. We evaluate damaged or compromised pointing and address it properly.
Survey first
We can survey and distinguish between repairs that maintain and strengthen the wall, and cases where the structure itself is at risk.
