Repointing & brickwork specialists in Muswell Hill

From the Edwardian houses off Muswell Hill Broadway to the parades around the roundabout, Muswell Hill is one of London’s finest Edwardian suburbs. We’ve been repointing properties like these for over 35 years.

Weather-struck repointing on a period property in Barnet, North London

Most of Muswell Hill was built in a short burst between the late 1890s and the First World War, much of it by builders such as James Edmondson and W.J. Collins. The result is a remarkably consistent Edwardian suburb of red brick houses with decorative gables, porches and terracotta detailing, much of it protected by the Muswell Hill Conservation Area.

Edwardian red brick is often softer than it looks, and cement repointing can cause the faces to crumble. We repoint in a lime mortar matched to the original colour and joint profile, so the brickwork keeps its character and stays healthy.

Conservation areas: Muswell Hill Conservation Area covers much of the Edwardian core around the Broadway. Lime mortar is the expected specification for repointing, and we can advise on whether you need to speak to Haringey Council first.
