🧱 This has to be one of the biggest windows I’ve ever bricked up! 😂
After removing the window, I started by blocking up the internal blockwork before moving onto the face brickwork outside.
The next job was to tooth out the existing brickwork at both ends of the opening. As you can see from the pictures, rather than leaving a straight vertical joint, the existing bricks are carefully removed in stages so the new brickwork can be properly toothed back into the house.
It takes a bit more time, especially on an opening this size, but it gives a much better finished job and helps make the new brickwork look like it’s always been there. 👌
From there it was just a case of working my way up with a nice matching face brick, keeping the existing bond and courses running through.
Really pleased with how this one turned out — for the size of the original window, the new brickwork has blended in lovely. 🧱👌
Another one ticked off! ✅
