Hi,

There was a window here previously that was removed and an internal door fitted into the conservatory. The internal door frame covered up all of this damaged brickwork. I have removed the internal door and frame and want to fit some UPVC doors but am concerned about the brickwork as this would be on show.

Is it possible to replace the broken bricks and repoint?

Any other solutions?

Thanks

I think I'd just clad in something nice but if you're really dedicated you can take the damaged bricks out, clean them up then reinstall them flipped so the (hopefully) good end that is buried inside the wall is the end you see

Might need some brick acid to dissolve the mortar off of if the bricks have crevices into which it's smeared
