At The Roofing Company Essex, we provide expert cement and lime pointing services for all types of properties across Loughton and surrounding Essex areas. Whether it’s a brick wall, chimney stack, parapet wall, or rendered surface, our skilled team ensures your masonry is protected, weatherproof, and looking its best.
Â
Over time, mortar joints naturally deteriorate due to exposure to the elements. Cracked or missing mortar can allow water to penetrate the brickwork, leading to damp, frost damage, and structural issues. Our pointing specialists carefully remove the old, damaged mortar and repoint using the most suitable materials — either traditional lime mortar or modern cement mortar, depending on your property type and requirements.
Our Mortar Services
The Roofing Company Essex carry out a full range of cement and lime pointing and rendering work across Loughton and surrounding Essex areas. Our skilled tradesmen combine traditional techniques with modern materials to deliver long-lasting results that protect and enhance your property.
Cement Pointing
A durable, hard-wearing option ideal for modern buildings, extensions, and exposed areas. Cement pointing provides excellent weather resistance and a clean, sharp finish, helping to protect brick and stonework from water penetration, frost damage, and general wear over time.
Lime Pointing
A breathable and flexible alternative that’s perfect for older, heritage, or listed properties. Lime mortar allows moisture to evaporate naturally, preventing trapped damp, flaking, and cracking in softer masonry. We carefully match the mortar composition and colour to suit your existing brickwork for a seamless finish.
Chimney Pointing & Repairs
Chimneys are exposed to the harshest weather conditions, making regular maintenance and repointing essential. Our team repairs and repoints chimneys and parapet walls, preventing water ingress and structural deterioration. We also provide chimney rendering to further protect and seal the brickwork from moisture damage.
Wall Rendering & Repointing
Â
Whether your home requires a new protective render or complete repointing, we ensure a flawless, professional finish that enhances both performance and appearance. Our rendering solutions are designed to improve insulation, prevent damp, and give your property a refreshed look that lasts.
Why Choose Cement or Lime Mortar?
All of us at The Roofing Company Essex understand that every property is different. Choosing between cement mortar and lime mortar depends on your building’s age, structure, and exposure to the elements. Our team will always recommend the most suitable option to ensure both durability and breathability.
Cement Mortar
Cement mortar is a strong, long-lasting, and cost-effective choice, ideal for modern homes, extensions, and exposed brickwork. It provides excellent resistance to weather and moisture, ensuring your brick or stone walls remain watertight and protected year-round. Cement mortar also delivers a clean, uniform finish that suits newer builds and contemporary designs.
Lime Mortar
Lime mortar is a traditional, breathable, and flexible material, perfect for heritage, listed, or older properties. Unlike cement, lime mortar allows moisture to escape naturally from the walls, reducing the risk of trapped damp, cracking, and frost damage. Its natural flexibility helps protect softer or historic brickwork, maintaining the building’s character and structural health.

Our specialists use the correct mortar mix for your property and always match the texture and colour to the original finish for a seamless, professional look.
