Repointing generally refers to the process of repairing or replacing the mortar joints in a brick or stone wall. There are various synonyms that can be used to describe this process. Some of the most commonly used alternatives to "repointed" are "rejointed," "rebedded," "recemented," and "renovated." Other potential synonyms could include "refurbished," "restored," "reconstructed," or "repaired." Each of these terms may be used to describe slightly different methods of fixing and improving the structure and appearance of a wall, but all are fundamentally related to the core concept of repointing.
