Moisture Mend provides external wall repairs in Newcastle and surrounding areas for properties where defects in masonry, mortar or external surfaces are contributing to damp and water ingress. We identify relevant problem areas before carrying out appropriate repairs to help protect the property from further moisture penetration.
Defects on the outside of a property can allow rainwater to penetrate the building and cause damp patches, damaged plaster and moisture problems internally. Moisture Mend provides external damp repairs across Newcastle, North Tyneside, Northumberland and Sunderland, focusing on defects associated with water ingress.
Deteriorated mortar joints can leave brick walls more exposed to rainwater penetration. Our Brick Repointing service repairs affected joints where defective pointing is contributing to external moisture problems.
Weathering and deteriorated mortar can also affect stone properties. Our Stone Repointing service provides appropriate repairs to affected joints and masonry where defects are increasing the risk of water penetration.
Where an external defect has already allowed moisture into the property, our Penetrating Damp Treatment service can address the associated internal damp problem alongside the necessary external remedial work.
Penetrating damp can often be linked to defects affecting the exterior of a property. Deteriorated pointing, damaged masonry and other external problems can create routes through which rainwater reaches internal walls and finishes.
Moisture Mend combines external repairs with specialist damp expertise. Rather than dealing only with the visible damp patch inside, we can consider the external source of moisture and complete relevant repairs before restoring affected internal plaster, render or finishes where required.
We focus on relevant defects that may be allowing rainwater and moisture to penetrate the external structure of the property.
Where external water ingress has caused internal damage, Moisture Mend can provide associated damp treatment, plaster repairs, rendering and re-skimming.
Repairing the internal signs of penetrating damp without addressing an external defect can leave the source of the problem unresolved. Moisture Mend combines external remedial work with damp diagnosis and treatment to provide a more complete approach to moisture ingress.

Localised damp patches, staining, peeling finishes or damaged plaster on an externalfacing wall can be associated with penetrating moisture. The external wall and internal symptoms should be considered together to establish the likely source.
