Thanks for this. I've moved into a house with quite a lot of spalled brickwork and will try this instead of getting a brickie in who will most likely say 'naaah mate all gotta come out innit'.
@reaper-sz5tm7 ай бұрын
If it spalls you can do this and it will last quite a while, but a genuine new solid brick will always last longer. It’ll just cost A LOT more to have done

Very nice. If it didn't matter about the aesthetics, like the brick was not seen from the ground, could one just render over the spalled damaged brick? And Will this mortar take a fixing?
@oldstoneconservation9938 Жыл бұрын
You could but it will most likely fail due to lack of bond and difference in materials.

@oldstoneconservation99382 жыл бұрын
Hi Iain, thanks for your comment. For longevity it is always preferable to replace the brick with a matching one however this is not always possible. Where a brick is repaired I would expect it to last for a duration of at least 20 years if not longer. Regards. Jimmy
