Hi folks, (happy new year to you all - getting well into now January though) I've added some up/down lights to our garage front and these now highlight some holes in the brickwork and morter from old light fixings. What is good to minimise their appearance? Also, low down and below the DPC the morter has crumbled and also the surface of the bricks too. I guess this is due to freezing and thawing over the past winters. What can be done to make this look good? Many thanks, Steve
Thanks for that clarification, Kiab. I presume that dries white, so that will look like white dots on my brickwork. Am I missing something here? Steve
You could do as Teabreak suggests but fill holes with mastic putting the brick dust on to colour it, easier to fill holes with mastic then cement or filler.
Mastic sounds like a good approach, I can buy mastic that is a good approximation to the colour then dust with brick dust (i could have some that I swept up yesterday; doh!). Thanks, Steve
