Can repointing be done in any weather conditions?

Repointing should be carried out in mild, dry weather to ensure the new mortar sets correctly. Harsh temperatures, whether hot or cold, along with wet conditions, can interfere with the curing process. We plan repointing work during favorable weather to achieve the best possible outcome.
How do I know if my brickwork needs repointing?

Indicators that your brickwork might need repointing include noticeable cracks in the mortar joints, loose or crumbling mortar, damp or damaged interior walls, and gaps between bricks. If you observe any of these signs, it's advisable to have a professional assess your brickwork to decide if repointing is required.
How often should brick repointing be done?

The need for repointing varies based on factors such as the type of mortar, the building's age, and its exposure to weather. Typically, brickwork may require repointing every 20 to 30 years. However, routine inspections can help detect the need for repointing before major damage arises.
What type of mortar is used in repointing?

We use mortar that closely matches the original in composition, colour, and texture to achieve a smooth integration with the existing brickwork. For historic or period properties, we opt for traditional lime mortars that are suited to the building's age and style, ensuring both longevity and historical authenticity.
Will repointing change the appearance of my brickwork?

When performed by experts, repointing boosts the visual appeal of your brickwork by filling in cracks and gaps with mortar that closely matches the original. This technique restores the consistency and charm of the brickwork, often making it appear as though it’s brand new, while maintaining its unique character.
How long does the repointing process take?

The length of the repointing process varies based on the project's size and the level of damage. Following an initial evaluation, we offer a customised timeline that suits your specific requirements. Our team works promptly to minimise disruption while delivering top-quality craftsmanship.
Why is professional brick and stone cleaning important?

Expert cleaning guarantees that your brick and stone surfaces are carefully restored without risk of damage. Our specialists employ advanced techniques and environmentally friendly solutions to eliminate dirt, grime, and pollutants, enhancing their natural appearance and prolonging the life of your masonry.
How often should I have my brick or stone surfaces cleaned?

How often cleaning is needed depends on factors such as your property's location, exposure to pollutants, and weather conditions. In most cases, we advise professional cleaning every 3–5 years to preserve the look and durability of your brick and stone surfaces.
What does brick and stone cleaning involve, and what methods do you use?

Brick and stone cleaning removes dirt, grime, and pollutants to restore and protect masonry surfaces. At Kent Building Group, we use DOFF and ThermaTech systems—superheated water cleaning methods that safely and effectively clean brick, stone, concrete, terracotta, and other materials without damage. These eco-friendly techniques remove paint, biological growth, and surface contaminants while preserving the integrity of historic and modern buildings.
Will cleaning damage the brick or stone surfaces?

When carried out by professionals, brick and stone cleaning is completely safe for your surfaces. Our team employs carefully selected, gentle yet effective techniques suited to your masonry, delivering a deep clean without risking damage to the material.

Yes, we provide expert graffiti removal for brick and stone surfaces. Using safe and effective methods, our team removes graffiti without harming the material, restoring your property to its original appearance.
How do you handle the restoration of historic or period properties?

Restoring historic or period properties demands expertise and a careful approach using traditional masonry techniques. Our skilled team specialises in heritage buildings, ensuring that all cleaning, repointing, and restoration work maintains the original architecture and materials, preserving the property's historical significance.
What is stone restoration, and why is it necessary?

Stone restoration is the process of repairing and revitalising stone surfaces to restore their original look and structural strength. Over time, stone can suffer damage or wear from environmental elements, pollution, and natural aging. Restoration is essential to maintain the beauty and extend the lifespan of your stone structures.
How do you determine the appropriate restoration method for my stone surfaces?

Our specialists perform a comprehensive evaluation of your stone surfaces to determine the type of stone, assess the level of damage, and identify any underlying issues. Using this assessment, we customise our restoration methods to address the unique needs of your stone, ensuring the most effective results.
Will the restoration process change the appearance of my stone surfaces?

Our aim is to restore your stone surfaces to their original beauty while preserving their natural character. We employ methods that seamlessly blend with the existing stone, ensuring a consistent look. For historic restorations, we focus on maintaining the authenticity of the original craftsmanship.
What types of damage can be repaired through stone restoration?

Stone restoration can resolve a range of issues, including cracks, chips, stains, weathering, and erosion. We also repair structural damage, such as loose or deteriorating stone, and restore intricate details on historic or decorative stone features.
How long does the stone restoration process take?

The length of the restoration process varies based on the extent of the damage and the size of the project. After evaluating your stone surfaces, we provide a clear timeline and keep you updated throughout. Our team works efficiently to minimize disruption and complete the restoration as swiftly as possible.
Can stone restoration prevent future damage?

Yes, as part of our stone restoration process, we apply protective treatments and sealants to prevent future damage from weather, pollution, and wear. Regular maintenance and prompt restoration can greatly extend the lifespan of your stone surfaces, ensuring they remain in top condition for years.
