Brickwork & masonry in Altrincham: your questions answered
Do you cover Altrincham?
Yes — Altrincham and the surrounding area are part of our regular patch. Altrincham, Hale and Bowdon fall under Trafford Council building control, or a registered building control approver of your choice.
Can you match old bricks?
Nearly always. We source reclaimed bricks or close modern matches, and match the mortar colour and joint style, so the repair disappears into the wall.
What is tuckpointing?
Tuckpointing sharpens up rendered or painted brick by cutting a thin line along the mortar beds and filling it with a contrasting mortar to make the joints stand out.
Do you repoint listed buildings?
Yes. Listed buildings need careful repointing in lime mortar to match the original. We work with local planning where needed and use traditional methods and materials.
