Due to proximity to the Thames and West London’s variable weather conditions, mortar in Chiswick homes often deteriorates faster than homeowners expect.
Many properties have been repointed in the past using hard cement mortar. Cement is too rigid for older brickwork and can trap moisture, accelerating brick decay.
