Finish on Brickwork after lintel installation


Recommended Posts

Hey guys

 

Firstly, apologies, as this is duplicating a thread I posted earlier. But i've also posted in here, as it's brickwork related

 

We've recently had a lintel installed above a window & I'm a bit underwhelmed by the workmanship, tbh

 

Taking other aspects aside, would you expect the replaced bricks to be fairly flush (steel L lintel installed into a cavity wall)?

 

It seems quite uneven imo (replaced bricks protruding out as a bulge by up to 6 or 7mm in places, as shown by the mortar in pic 2). I suspect the builder rushed and didn't take time to align anything. But likewise dunno if this can be typical when fitting lintels...

 

Would you guys expect the finish to be more flush & even?

 

Apologies again - I've posted as I'm in a quandary about calling the builder back before paying 20241106_103005.thumb.jpg.e4c5bf092a718c56b708236205e866b8.jpg

 

 

Many thanks for your time as always
