Renderer/Brick Pointer

ABOUT JDI

Just Does It is a building contractor working across West London and surrounding areas. We specialise in exterior refurbishment, flat roofing, leadwork, interior refurbishment and general maintenance including painting and decorating, on both commercial and domestic property. We work as a main contractor on a wide range of buildings, including many listed ones, and we work closely with surveyors and property managing agents to deliver work to a high, sustainable and professional standard.

THE ROLE

We are looking for a Restorer / Stone Mason / Renderer to join JDI's specialist teams working on period buildings and listed properties across West London and surrounding areas. The role covers traditional rendering, brick pointing and stone repair on facades and common parts — the skilled, visible work that defines the exterior of a building and what JDI is known for. Care, patience and a sympathetic eye for the existing material matter as much as the technique.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Rendering — traditional and modern systems, repair patches and full elevations.
• Brick pointing — raking out, mixing matching mortar, repointing in lime or cement to suit the building.
• Stone repair — dressing, splicing, plastic repairs, indenting and stone replacement where required.
• Identifying defects and matching materials to the existing fabric — lime, sand, aggregate, brick type.
• Working safely from scaffold on facade and exterior works.
• Keeping the work area clean and clearing up properly at the end of each day.

REQUIREMENTS

• Demonstrable experience across rendering, pointing and stone repair — ideally on period buildings.
• CSCS card — blue (Skilled Worker) as a minimum.
• Sound understanding of lime mortars and matching to existing fabric.
• Confident and safe working from scaffold.
• Your own professional tools for the trade.
• Full PPE, good spoken English, and clear communication on site.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU

• Rates above market, paid direct — no agency in the middle.
• Incentive plans on top of base pay.
• Real work on real buildings — listed buildings, mansion blocks and period properties. The kind of work you'll be proud to point at.
• High standards, the right way. We do the job properly, finish what we start, and the standard of finish matters because the client is paying attention.
• Steady work, organised sites — materials ready, instructions clear, payment on time.
