Brick entrance steps and adjacent walls
Steps and wall masonry may meet visually while requiring different repair work. Show the joint between them and explain how the entrance is used.
Record the complete approach
Photograph the landing, step edges and surrounding wall from a safe position. Note loose pieces or changes in level without testing them underfoot. Identify another entrance if the working area may need to be kept clear.
Define the next step
Have the repair boundary described clearly. A quote for wall repointing should not be assumed to include rebuilding steps or correcting their support.
