Crumbling mortar joints turning your patio into an eyesore? Those gaps between paving slabs aren't just unsightly – they're inviting weeds, water damage and potential trips right outside your back door.

Bromley's mix of clay soils and seasonal weather takes its toll on patio pointing year after year. Whether you've got original Victorian flagstones in Sundridge or contemporary porcelain in Bickley, degraded joints compromise both aesthetics and stability. Proper repointing breathes new life into tired patios whilst preventing costly future repairs.
First, old mortar gets carefully raked out without disturbing surrounding slabs. Fresh pointing compound – selected based on your specific stone type and exposure – fills each joint completely. The finish? Neat, weather-resistant joints that complement your paving perfectly. Modern polymeric compounds offer flexibility where traditional sand-cement mixes might crack, particularly useful given Bromley's variable ground conditions.
Local knowledge matters when working with the diverse patio styles found across BR postcodes. From Edwardian properties in Shortlands to newer developments, understanding how different substrates behave ensures lasting results.

Most suburban patios (40-60m²) range from £800-£1,400, though intricate patterns or natural stone may increase costs. Smaller courtyard areas often fall between £400-£700.
Absolutely – from the town centre properties in BR1 through to the leafier streets of BR2 and BR3, including Shortlands, Bickley and Sundridge neighbourhoods.
Standard residential patios typically require 2-3 days, allowing proper curing time between stages. Larger or more complex layouts might extend to 4-5 days.
All repointing carries decade-long protection against failure, covering joint integrity and weather resistance. This comprehensive warranty reflects confidence in materials and workmanship quality.
If your slabs remain level and uncracked, repointing offers excellent value – transforming appearance at a fraction of replacement cost. However, significant movement or extensive slab damage might warrant complete renewal.
