When does brick need repointing?

Old mortar being ground out of a brick wall for repointing

Crumbling mortar, gaps you can slide a key into and damp interior walls all point to worn joints.

Repointing removes failed mortar and replaces it with a matching mix. Mortar that is too hard can damage older brick.

Acting early costs far less than repairing water damage inside the wall.
