Brick Cleaning, Pointing & Restoration in West London
Brick is an incredibly strong and long lasting building material. As you already know if you live in a period home, many structures built with brick hundreds of years ago are still going strong. West London’s Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian housing stock were all built with brick, and although the materials used then were not designed with today’s corrosive pollution, and changing weather conditions in mind, with a little TLC, they will continue to be delightful and comfortable homes for many more years to come.
At London Brick Cleaning Company our aim is to help you give your West London home the care and attention it deserves.

Pointing and Restoration
These tasks are not simple DIY jobs that can be undertaken by just anyone – they need specialist knowledge and an experienced eye for detail to spot a tiny, but potentially structure damaging crack in your pointing, for example.
Our experienced team have many years of knowledge behind them, and will happily look after the structure of your home, which includes pointing and stone or brick restoration.
You probably already know that pointing refers to the mortar part of bricks and mortar; you can see it between the individual bricks or stone blocks used to build your home. But you may not know that, aside from being a bedding substance for brick or stone, pointing has a crucial role to play in maintaining the structural health of any building. This need for flexibility means that pointing is intentionally the weakest element in your home’s construction, and needs to be restored or replaced at regular intervals.
As you can imagine, the primary challenge of brick or stone restoration is aesthetic; how to go about repairing damage in buildings which are often centuries old, or built using distinctive bricks or tiles. South London’s Victorian buildings in particular are showcases for amazing terracotta or faience tile work, or feature astounding decorative brickwork. Working on the structure of these buildings without also conserving their beauty would be tantamount to vandalism. That’s why we specialise in sourcing hard-to-find bricks and tiles, and in matching replacements to the original materials.
London Brick Cleaning Company can advise on, and undertake, all manner of brick and stone care for your home.
