Brick Replacement
For dislodged or failed units on heritage façades: we source matching brick and keep the visual rhythm intact.
Minimal Intervention
Stabilize first; replace last. Protect original fabric and extend envelope life with least-invasive fixes.
Method, Not Myths
Breathable mortars, correct tooling, and cleaning that respects substrate—no aggressive acids.
Our 4-step replacement process
- 1) Remove damaged units — precise extraction, keep surrounding courses intact.
- 2) Clean — remove debris/efflorescence; no harsh chemicals that burn the clay body.
- 3) Match & set — brick/mortar strength & colour matched; avoid over-hard mixes.
- 4) Tool joints — period-correct profile for a seamless read from the street.
