Pricing guide
Costs are driven by the area and how deeply joints must be raked — full‑face or deep raking across large sections is typically more time‑consuming than spot maintenance. Using specialist lime or matched mortars for heritage work usually requires sample panels and slower application and curing. Additional setup for scaffolding, containment or protecting nearby surfaces also increases labour and materials.
Mortar type and heritage matching
Specialist lime or customised mortars and sample panels for matching usually take longer and require more skilled labour.
Extent and depth of raking
Deep or continuous raking across large areas is generally slower and increases setup, waste handling and time on site.
Access and scaffolding requirements
Jobs that need scaffolding or elevated access typically add setup time and complexity compared with ground‑level work.
Containment and site protection
High containment for nearby interiors, pools or sensitive finishes usually requires extra protective materials and labour to set up and remove.
Brick condition and replacement need
If bricks are damaged and need replacing rather than simple repointing, the scope and time required will generally increase.
