Repointing & brickwork specialists in Leyton

From the Victorian terraces off Leyton High Road to the Edwardian streets around Francis Road, Leyton is built from classic London brick. We’ve been repointing properties like these for over 35 years.

Brick cleaning and restoration on a period property in Walthamstow, Waltham Forest

Most of Leyton was built up in the late Victorian and Edwardian years after the railway arrived — long terraces of London stock and red brick, many with decorative bays, arches and string courses. Streets around Francis Road, Church Road and the High Road still have much of their original brickwork.

Brickwork from this period was laid in lime mortar. Where it has since been patched in hard cement, the bricks can spall and crack. We repoint in a breathable lime mortar matched to the original colour and joint profile, and can clean and restore brick faces at the same time.
