Exterior brickwork and masonry are constantly exposed to the elements, and over time this exposure can lead to moisture absorption, damp penetration and long-term damage to the structure. Without effective waterproofing, rainwater can enter the brick pores and mortar joints, causing staining, frost damage, mould growth and interior damp issues. RGL Restoration provides specialist wall and brickwork waterproofing services designed to protect your property and keep it resilient in all weather conditions.

Our process begins with a thorough assessment of the building fabric. We identify areas of porous brickwork, failed mortar, cracks or previous coatings that may be trapping moisture. By addressing these issues first, we ensure the waterproofing system performs to its full potential. In many cases, this includes repointing, crack repairs or removing old sealants before applying a modern, breathable waterproof treatment.

We use high-performance masonry creams and hydrophobic coatings that penetrate deep into the surface rather than sitting as a film on top. These products form an invisible barrier that repels water while still allowing the wall to breathe. This breathability is essential for preventing trapped moisture, ensuring the building can expel internal humidity while staying protected from external rainwater. Once applied, the treatment significantly reduces water absorption and helps defend against staining, weather damage and salt efflorescence.

For properties at higher risk — such as those with driving rain exposure, older brickwork or previously damp-prone walls — we offer enhanced systems, including multi-coat applications and additional protection around critical areas like window reveals, parapets and chimney stacks. This ensures the entire façade works as a unified, weather-resistant surface.

Whether it’s a residential home, a commercial property or a heritage building, RGL Restoration delivers long-lasting, unobtrusive waterproofing that strengthens the building envelope and reduces maintenance costs. Our solutions help preserve the appearance and condition of your brickwork, giving you confidence that your property is protected for years to come.
