Wall Area to Work on at a Given Time When Repointing?

by thatparritt » Thu Mar 09, 2017 5:21 pm

long garden wall, (so no ladders!)
What length of wall is reasonable to work on at a time, 1/2/3 ft?
Do I clean old mortar from top to bottom/ or bottom to top
Vertical or horizontal first
How many rows at a time do I clean to re-point in one go

Hope this all makes sense
Thanks for any help, & time.
Cheers
