    Repair to garden wall following car crashing into it.

    Posted 13 January

    Scott and his staff were punctual and finished the bulk of the work in one day, despite freezing weather conditions. Scott kept me updated either progress throughout.

    Repointing exposed brick chimney breast

    Posted 30 November 2025

    Scott was very communicative, and did an excellent job of repointing the chimney breast - we are really happy with how it has turned out. A heads up for anyone considering the same - it is very messy work, so in hindsight I would have covered the walls in advance of it being done as we needed to repaint.

    Response from Southwest pointing

    Thank you for your reply we appreciate all feedback, unfortunately internal repointing of something like a chimney breast indoors is an extremely messy job even with a dust vac like we used. We would always advise leaving fresh decorating to after such work

    DPM installed in front porch

    Posted 14 November 2025

    Scott from Southwest Pointing has been a pleasure to deal with. He was very communicative and answered all the questions I had. The work carried out has been completed to a high standard and he left the area clean. Scott called me to clarify a change in the work once he had started as he found another crack which I really appreciated being kept informed of any changes. Scott even came back the next day to help investigate another problem we were having in the same area and helped us provide a temporary solution for our guttering at no extra cost, a true trade-gentleman!

    Bath stone walls repair

    Posted 10 November 2025

    Scott replaced the mortar in our Bath stone walls & replaced loose stones below ground level, leaving a nice overall finish and appearance. He was an easy person to work with, quick and efficient.
