FAQs - Stone restoration services Tollerton
What is stone restoration?
Stone restoration is the process of repairing, cleaning and preserving damaged or weathered stonework. This can include stone repairs, stone replacement, stone cleaning and repointing to restore the appearance, strength and longevity of the masonry.
What is the difference between stone pointing and repointing?
Stone pointing refers to the finishing of mortar joints between stonework, while repointing is the process of removing deteriorated mortar and replacing it with new mortar. Repointing helps protect stone walls from water ingress, structural damage and further deterioration. We specialise in stone pointing and repointing services across Tollerton and the surrounding areas.
What is lime pointing?
Lime pointing uses traditional lime mortar rather than modern cement-based mortars. Lime mortar allows historic buildings to breathe naturally, helping moisture escape and reducing the risk of stone damage.
How do I know if my stonework needs repointing?
Signs that stonework may require repointing include crumbling mortar, cracks in the joints, loose stonework, damp penetration and visible gaps between stones. If left untreated, deteriorating mortar can lead to more extensive stone repairs.
Do you work on listed buildings in Tollerton?
Yes. AJ Mills has extensive experience working on listed buildings, historic properties and conservation projects throughout Tollerton. We use appropriate materials and traditional techniques to maintain the integrity and heritage value of these buildings.
