Lime Mortar Repointing

As heritage restoration experts, Fortify Construction Ltd specialises in lime mortar brickwork and repointing across Kent and East Sussex. Lime mortar is a natural, sustainable material that protects historic masonry by allowing walls to breathe and moisture to evaporate — preventing brick decay and preserving the unique character of older buildings.

Our process involves carefully removing damaged mortar and replacing it with new lime mortar, maintaining the structural integrity of period and traditional properties. Unlike cement mortar, lime flexes naturally with temperature and movement, reducing cracks and extending the life of your brickwork.

Lime mortar is also an excellent choice for eco-conscious new builds, offering a lower carbon footprint, natural insulation benefits, and a non-toxic composition — providing a greener, longer-lasting alternative to cement-based materials.

Why Quality Brickwork & Repointing Matters

Properly maintained brickwork prevents water ingress, heat loss, and structural deterioration. Over time, mortar joints naturally erode — allowing moisture to penetrate walls and cause cracking or damp. Regular repointing restores the integrity of your brickwork, protects your property from weather damage, and keeps your home looking its best.
