Dublin area.
This recent project in Portobello Dublin, consisted of raking out the old cement pointing & repointing
in traditional lime mortar pointing.
Great care was taken when raking out the old cement as it was rock hard. Specialist equipment was used to cut out & rake out the cement to avoid
damaging the brickwork especially around the arch area. Repointed with lime mortar in a flush pointing style.
