Reply to comment by fergablu2 in 1950s brick veneer repair advice needed - pics included. by WanderingMozzie

Thanks fergablu - just to clarify, am I correct in thinking that if I left the settled bricks & didn’t repoint, the lintel could rust?

I would guess that the lintel rusting and warping caused the bricks to shift.

Got it makes sense, would you recommend replacing the lintel & also the bricks around it?

Find a masonry specialist to look at it.
