Edwadian terrace lime mortar repointing Basingstoke

Circa 1850 lime mortar repointing and brick replacement
The front and the back of this lovely Edwardian terraced house was given a sympathetic prewash and scrub, the old lime mortar removed and replaced with an NHL lime and 3mm Morestead aggregate.
The front of the house had sure seen better days but the rear of the property was in the poorest state due to it being South facing. When repointing we had to make sure all the work was kept covered so the sun wouldn't prematurely dry the mortar out.
