Lime Pointing in Midlothian
Midlothian Masonry are experts in the lime pointing of natural stone and brick.
Pointing is the element of mortar that you can see between individual stone pieces.
When your lime pointing becomes tired and weak as it does over time, then it not only looks unsightly, but also provides direct access for moisture to penetrate your stone building and cause all manner of damp related issues internally.
Keeping your lime pointing in good condition enhances the appearance of your historic building or wall if carried out correctly.
Our Midlothian Stonemasons lime pointing team take the time to carefully match the colour and texture of the existing lime pointing before carrying out stone pointing remedial work.
As well as deploying the correct lime mortar for the job, technique and skill are equally important to a great outcome. Our stonemasons have been repointing walls and and buildings for 40 years, and this shows in the quality of our work.
