Weatherproofing & Brick Sealing
Brickwork is constantly exposed to rain, frost, wind, and moisture — and without proper protection, even the strongest masonry can begin to deteriorate. At S.J. Lewis Repointing Services, we provide professional weatherproofing and brick sealing across Oxfordshire, helping safeguard both modern and heritage properties from long‑term moisture damage. Our treatments strengthen your masonry, improve durability, and extend the lifespan of your brickwork.
🧱 Professional Brick Sealing for Long‑Term Protection
Brick sealing creates a protective barrier that prevents water from penetrating the surface while still allowing the masonry to breathe.
We use high‑quality, breathable sealants designed to protect against:
- Rain and moisture penetration
- Frost damage and spalling
- Algae, moss, and organic growth
- Weather‑related deterioration
- Long‑term staining and discolouration
Our sealants are clear, non‑shiny, and designed to preserve the natural appearance of your brickwork.
🌧️ Weatherproofing for Modern & Traditional Buildings
Weatherproofing is essential for maintaining the health and stability of your property.
We apply specialist treatments that protect brick, stone, and mortar from harsh weather conditions without trapping moisture inside the structure.
Our weatherproofing solutions help to:
- Reduce damp and moisture absorption
- Improve thermal performance
- Prevent freeze‑thaw damage
- Extend the lifespan of external walls
- Maintain a clean, fresh appearance
This is particularly beneficial for exposed elevations, chimneys, garden walls, and properties in open or high‑weather areas.
🌿 Breathable Protection for Heritage & Listed Buildings
Historic buildings require breathable treatments that allow moisture to escape naturally.
We use conservation‑appropriate sealants that protect without altering the building’s appearance or trapping moisture — a common cause of damage in older properties.
Our heritage‑safe weatherproofing:
- Preserves original brick and stone
- Prevents damp and internal moisture issues
- Supports the building’s natural breathability
- Maintains the property’s historic character
Every product is chosen to be fully compatible with lime mortar and traditional materials.
