Cement Work in Chester-le-Street

Mortar wet work plays an essential role in sealing roof junctions, chimney stacks, and verges against water entry. We provide expert re-bedding, re-pointing, and brick repointing services to keep your property watertight.

When You Need Cement Work

Mortar joints between your chimney bricks are eroding or missing entirely. Ridge tiles feel loose or have gaps in the mortar bedding underneath them. Rainwater is penetrating roof abutments or valley flashings. Cracks are visible along your cement verges during ground-level inspection.

How We Do It

We rake out old, cracked mortar using specialized grinding and raking blades. We clean out dust and debris from the joints to ensure a strong bond. We mix fresh, high-strength mortar and carefully re-bed or re-point your tiles and brickwork. We smooth and finish the joints neatly for a weatherproof, long-lasting seal.

What to Expect

Most cement re-bedding and repointing projects are completed within 1 day depending on the scale of the work.
