Highlights

Good communication. Repair was done quickly and to a high standard. Would recommend.

Mark HCheckatrade5.0 rating

Damaged brickwork replaced and a few areas of pointing done to my entire satisfaction. Paul and his team did everything possible to bring the work to a speedy conclusion and everything about this firm smacks of professionalism. A special mention to Wendy in the office who is extremely efficient. I would have no hesitation in recommending this firm.

It was an excellent job

Elaine Mallett5.0 / 5 ·

Our team, Mike & Tom, did a great job of lime pointing the house and the end result is excellent. Our adjoining neighbours are very jealous and lots of people have said how good the house looks. Paul and Wendy ensured everything went smoothly from start to finish and kept us well informed throughout. Inevitably re-pointing is a messy and time consuming job but every care was taken to minimise this and clear up every day. Couldn’t be more pleased with the results.

Good: - Communication - Punctuality Not good: - Not enough mortar removed in areas which has fallen out since - Broken doorbell - Broken roof tiles ( no accountability as maybe they were broken already, maybe not ) - Paul declined to view the work himself, too busy Full disclosure, I was told I touched mortar causing issues. I did in one area above the door, the darker areas are my doing. Picture provided.

Verified by CheckatradeCleaning of brickwork and re-pointing

The guys did a great job! They were very friendly and approachable and completed the job in the allocated time without leaving any mess. Communication with Wendy and Paul was excellent. They had to move things around because of bad weather, but I was informed beforehand. I would highly recommend this company.

I recently hired Paul and his team for some work on my property. Their professionalism was evident from start to finish, and the standard of their work was top-notch. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of pointing services.

Great company to work with, they were all very friendly. Had to delay start date due to rain but they kept up informed every step. They did the work very quickly and cleaned up after themselves. Very good quality work, will definitely use them again for any other pointing required.

Paul clearly explained the work and what would be required. There was good communication with Wendy throughout the large job and we are pleased with the final result. The workman were friendly and polite throughout their work and especially made sure our neighbours were not impacted. Thank you

Cheshire Pointing did a really good job, they came and surveyed before send in a quote, the team that came were polite and thoughtful, they covered my plants and cleaned up each afternoon before they left. I am pleased with the job they did and would not hesitate to recommend them.

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.

Check the TrustMark register
Never pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
