Turning brick pointing into an art form

Recommended Posts

Shortly after having moved into our old Victorian house we realised that the surveyor had not been kidding when we he wrote ?Substantial repointing of brickwork is now required.? in our building survey as we witnessed water running down internal walls during a heavy shower. Quickly questioning the sanity of our purchase we went to the EDF for solutions to our problem and came across a promising prospect called Robert Payne who received rave reviews and worked with lime mortar (as Victorian house novices we considered this a requirement based on our intense studies of The Victorian House Manual).


Rob quickly came by to admire our internal waterfalls and offered a shoulder to cry on. We knew we had found the right person for the job the moment we meet him and immediately stop the search.


As things turned out not only had we been lucky enough to find a talented Stonemason, Rob has also offered invaluable advice as we opened Pandora?s Box in the form of our renovation project. Perhaps most importantly, however, Rob has exceeded our expectations by transforming our house from an ugly duckling to a swan where we initially saw the project more as a dull water proofing exercise.


Rob takes pride in his work, has extreme attention to details, and has worked tirelessly throughout the project. His professional attitude and the high standards of his work has been inspirational.


The only problem is that Rob is a one man army and has a very good reputation so as they say: early booking is strongly advised ? patients will, however, be rewarded! Contact details: Robert Payne, Stone Rejuvenation, 0757 708 9393 or http://www.stonerejuvenation.co.uk/.

    • Yes. I must have accidentally clicked on something when I was coming out of the brightness settings after having checked the brightness was ok on the spreadsheet I was editing. And the first Which Tech person I spoke to when all this started said I couldn't have done that because the only settings on that page were for brightness. But neither he nor  I nor anyone else until now came to the what now seems obvious conclusion that I had somehow on coming out of the settings clicked on something which turned the brightness down completely to black  But as my daughter just said, why on earth would you have the lowest setting set to  no brightness at all?! Bonkers! Anyway, thanks so much again to everyone who has helped, it's much appreciated ❤️
    • A bit of a delayed review but we had a kitchen sink disaster on Christmas Day, so called Nico (after finding his incredible reviews on the ED forum) and he came over the day after boxing day. Incredibly friendly, knowledgable, and super professional. It was a tricky job but Nico fixed it within an hour. Can't recommend him highly enough. 
    • Link to the consultation hopefully: https://engage.southwark.gov.uk/en-GB/projects/galaseries2025 HP
    • Thanks D Walker, I think I'd misunderstood what the works actually involved! Sorry.
