About All Pointing
Repointing and lime mortar specialists working across Tenterden, the High Weald, Kent and East Sussex.
Repointing done properly
All Pointing is a specialist repointing business. Repointing, mortar and closely associated masonry work is what we do, rather than it being one line on a general builder's list.
We work on all kinds of property, from ordinary family homes with failing mortar joints through to older, traditional and listed buildings that need traditional lime work. The common thread is getting the mortar and the preparation right so the repair lasts and suits the building.
All Pointing is a trading name of Embery Property Group Limited, a registered UK limited company (Company No. 17289509) and a VAT registered business (VAT No. 523 188 006). We are one of a group of related property trades, so if a project needs more than repointing we can point you in the right direction.
We are a service-area business based around Tenterden and travel out to properties across the High Weald and the surrounding parts of Kent and East Sussex.
Our approach
A practical philosophy, in plain terms.
Careful assessment
We look at the masonry and the existing mortar properly before quoting, so the work we recommend actually suits your property.
The right mortar for the property
A modern home and a period building need different mortars. We use one that is compatible with your brickwork, not a one-size-fits-all mix.
Repair rather than unnecessary replacement
Where sound brickwork just needs repointing, we repoint it. We do not replace what does not need replacing.
Attention to preparation
Good repointing starts with raking out the old mortar to the correct depth and protecting the brick faces. Preparation is where most jobs are won or lost.
Appropriate traditional methods where required
On older, traditional and listed buildings we use lime mortars and traditional finishes where they are the right choice.
Clear communication
You get a straightforward explanation of what the work involves, a written quotation, and an honest answer if repointing is not what your property needs.
Local service
We serve Tenterden, the High Weald and the surrounding parts of Kent and East Sussex, so we understand the local buildings and materials.
