Masonry repairs and tinting
Specialist brick, stone and mortar repairs and tinting to restore damaged masonry, correct colour variations and blend new work into existing and heritage buildings.
Practical solutions for damaged or mismatched masonry
From repairs and colour correction to specialist tinting, helping restore brick, stone and mortar while retaining the natural appearance of the masonry.
Restoring and blending existing masonry
Specialist repairs and tinting for brick, stone and mortar.
Damaged masonry doesn't always need replacing. Specialist repairs can restore damaged bricks, stone and mortar, retaining as much of the existing material as possible.
Tinting can correct colour variations and poorly blended brickwork, as well as helping new masonry blend naturally with existing buildings. It's particularly useful for extensions and refurbishment projects where the original bricks have weathered, the existing brick has been discontinued, or the closest available new brick doesn't quite match.
Tinting can also correct colour variations, inconsistent brick batches or poorly blended areas on new-build projects, while mortar tinting can help when the mortar colour itself is making new or repaired work stand out.
For heritage projects, tinting can also help new bricks, stone or mortar blend with older masonry, maintaining the character and appearance of the original building.
More than just repairs and tinting ...
Masonry can be affected by a wide range of issues, from damage during construction to staining, weathering and deterioration over time.
New brickwork issues
Efflorescence, lime run, brick banding, staining, acid-cleaning damage, chipped or cracked bricks and damaged brick slip systems.
Construction amage
Scaffolding marks, mortar or concrete splashes, adhesive and mastic residue, render overspill and other site-related staining or damage.
Existing weathered masonry
Frost and spalling damage, cracks, organic staining, weathering, poorly matched brickwork and other deterioration affecting older masonry.
Why use Peak Project Solutions for masonry repairs and tinting?
Brick, stone and mortar repairs
Specialist repairs can restore damaged masonry while retaining as much of the existing material as possible.
Bespoke, hand-blended tinting
Coloured dyes are blended to achieve the required shade and carefully applied by hand to brick, stone or mortar. The tint penetrates the masonry rather than simply coating the surface, creating a natural-looking finish.
Colour matching and tinting
Colours can be carefully adjusted to help new, repaired or mismatched masonry blend with the surrounding building.
Extensions and refurbishments
Ideal where existing masonry has weathered over time or the closest available new product doesn't quite match.
Heritage projects
New and repaired masonry can be sensitively blended to complement the character and appearance of older buildings.
New-build colour correction
Colour variations, inconsistent batches and poorly blended areas can be corrected after the masonry has been built.
Discontinued bricks
Tinting can provide a practical solution when the original brick is no longer available and an exact replacement can't be found.
Mortar tinting
Existing or new mortar can be tinted where differences in colour are making repairs, extensions or alterations stand out.
