In broad terms there are
three alternatives for repairing defective masonry; complete renewal,
insitu surface restoration and in some cases consolidation.
The need for masonry repair lies with factors such as incorrect
detailing in original construction, incompatible materials placed
beside one another, inadequate weatherings and regrettably the problem
is often caused by bad repairs, in particular, the use of hard mortars
for repointing or stucco repair.
Lack of maintenance also leads ultimately to further damage of
the building fabric. In order to identify concealed defects, it
is often necessary to clean external masonry to expose the problem.
Once diagnosed various masonry repair methods can be adopted depending
upon the type of masonry and the extent of the decay.
