Job Description:

We are seeking a motivated and dedicated individual to join our team as a Trainee Repointing Operative. This position offers an excellent opportunity for someone who is eager to learn and develop valuable skills within housing maintenance and domestic retrofit.

Mortar holds bricks, stones and blocks together, so it is essential for maintaining your home’s structure, as well as defending against water and damp. If it’s allowed to weaken and get worn down, then the integrity of your home could be at risk.

Repointing is the process of removing and replacing this mortar. It’s a way of fixing any damage and wear and tear on your property as well as improving the look of your home. It’s especially good for older homes, where new mortar can be used to reduce damp and improve the durability of the walls for all weather conditions.
