LIME POINTING IN MARPLE

If the interior of your structure is to remain dry and functional, you need the walls to breathe well to allow moisture to escape easily. Lime mortar is the means by which many period properties achieve this function. So if the lime mortar permeating the structure of your property has developed openings or recessions in the pointing and needs repair, our expert masons can help. Even if you have had repointing done with cement mortar, which has resulted in the deterioration of the walls, we can help. For all lime pointing work in Oldham, do not hesitate to call Saddleworth Restoration Conservation.

SRC ltd carry out a range of lime pointing services on all types of stone and brick buildings including heritage and listed buildings. We can remove decayed and defective pointing and inappropriate cementitious pointing and replace it with new lime pointing, which is more compatible with buildings built using lime, being both breathable and permeable.

We have a great number of years’ experience working with lime mortars and can match original mortars when required. We also use the very best materials in different types of lime and a wide range of conservation pointing sands, allowing us to match most mortar colours, tones and textures.

We welcome all types of restoration projects large and small, including dry stone walling in Marple please get in touch for more information.
