Tuck Pointing Specialists

At Calvey Restoration Ltd, we specialise in traditional tuck pointing—a highly skilled finish that enhances the visual appeal of brickwork while maintaining its historical character. Working across Liverpool and Nationwide, our expert team restores period façades with care, accuracy, and enduring craftsmanship.

Pre-Construction Expertise

Our strength lies not just in execution, but in preparation. We offer a full suite of pre-construction services to architects, surveyors, project managers and engineers. This includes technical surveys, material assessments, failure analysis, and costed repair strategies.

Innovation through Tradition

While we honour the past, we also invest in the future. Many of the buildings we work on present unique technical challenges, requiring bespoke, reverse-engineered solutions informed by historical research and modern conservation science.

Commitment to Quality

Everything we do is driven by a commitment to long-term value. We source only the most appropriate materials—often natural stone or traditional lime mortars—and apply them with a level of care and craftsmanship that ensures lasting performance.

Our Traditional Brickworking Techniques

Tuck pointing is a decorative repointing technique that creates the appearance of fine, evenly laid joints. Originally used to elevate irregular brickwork on Georgian and Victorian buildings, it remains one of the most refined and labour-intensive restoration methods.

At Calvey Restoration, we apply these techniques with the same care and skill as the original craftsmen—achieving authentic results that enhance both the aesthetics and heritage value of your property.

Gauged Brickwork & Decorative Detailing

Our stonemasons and brickworkers are trained in gauged brickwork, where bricks are carefully shaped and set with near-invisible joints to create beautifully detailed finishes. Whether restoring historic elevations or adding period-accurate features to newer properties, we bring an artist’s eye and a craftsman’s hand to every detail.
