Repointing & brickwork specialists in Walthamstow

Walthamstow Village — the historic heart around Orford Road — mixes timber-framed, Georgian and Victorian brickwork, while the wider area is full of Victorian terraces. We’ve been repointing properties like these for over 35 years.

Full facade brick restoration and repointing on a Victorian terrace in Walthamstow, East London

Walthamstow Village, centred on Orford Road and Church End, is the most important conservation area in Waltham Forest — a rare survival of the original village, with timber-framed buildings like the Ancient House alongside Georgian villas and Victorian cottages. The adjoining Orford Road conservation area was Walthamstow’s Victorian high street and retains a fine collection of Victorian shops, cottages and villas.

Nearby, Lloyd Park — home to the William Morris Gallery — and the wider Walthamstow area have streets of Victorian terraces that make up much of the borough’s housing stock. We’ve carried out full facade repointing on a Victorian terrace in Walthamstow and work to the correct lime mortar specification throughout the area.
