Moisture Mend provides professional repointing and external damp repairs in Newcastle and surrounding areas, addressing defects that can leave masonry vulnerable to rainwater and moisture penetration. From deteriorated mortar to external wall problems contributing to penetrating damp, we provide targeted repairs based on the condition of the property.
Weathering and deterioration to external masonry can create routes for moisture to enter a property. Moisture Mend provides repointing and external damp repairs across Newcastle, North Tyneside, Northumberland and Sunderland, helping address relevant defects before they cause further internal moisture damage.
Cracked, loose or deteriorated mortar joints can leave brick walls increasingly exposed to rainwater. Our Brick Repointing service repairs affected joints to restore the condition of the masonry and help reduce routes through which external moisture can penetrate.
Stone walls can also become vulnerable where existing mortar has deteriorated through age and weather exposure. Our Stone Repointing service provides appropriate mortar repairs based on the existing stonework and condition of the affected wall.
Problems affecting external walls can contribute directly to penetrating damp inside a property. Our External Wall Repairs focus on relevant masonry and external defects that may be allowing rainwater and moisture to reach internal walls and finishes.
Penetrating damp often begins with a problem outside the property. Deteriorated pointing, weathered masonry and other defects can allow rainwater into the building, eventually resulting in damp patches, damaged plaster and deterioration to internal finishes.
Moisture Mend combines external remedial work with specialist damp expertise. Where defects in brickwork, stonework or mortar are contributing to water ingress, the external problem can be repaired alongside appropriate penetrating damp treatment and restoration of affected internal walls where required.
We understand how defects in external walls and masonry can contribute to penetrating damp and moisture problems inside a property.
Where water ingress has already caused damage internally, Moisture Mend can combine external remedial work with appropriate damp treatment and wall restoration.
Repairing an internal damp patch without addressing the defect allowing rainwater into the building can leave the underlying problem unresolved. Moisture Mend considers the external condition of the property alongside the resulting moisture damage, providing a connected approach to damp remediation.
Find answers to common questions about repointing and external damp repairs in Newcastle, including deteriorated mortar, masonry, penetrating damp and water ingress.
Cracked, loose, missing or badly weathered mortar joints can indicate that repointing is required. The condition of the surrounding brick or stone masonry should also be considered when determining the appropriate repair.
Yes. Deteriorated mortar can leave gaps and weaknesses within an external wall through which rainwater may penetrate. Where this happens, moisture can contribute to penetrating damp and damage to internal finishes.
Yes. Moisture Mend provides both brick repointing and stone repointing. The appropriate mortar repairs depend on the existing masonry, construction and condition of the affected wall.
Penetrating damp can result from different external defects affecting a property. Problems with masonry, pointing and rainwater management can all be relevant, so the source of moisture should be identified before repairs are recommended.
Yes. Where an external defect has resulted in penetrating damp, Moisture Mend can provide associated damp treatment, plaster repairs, rendering and re-skimming where required.
