Hi all, I have a wall at the front of my property with a metal gate hung in it. The pillar supports for the gate are two bricks square, and about 5' high. The local yobbery have shown me a problem that I didn't know existed, so maybe I should thank them(I think not!).
The pillar on which the gate is hinged is cracked across the whole of it's depth at the mortar, about two levels from it's base; with a bit of weight on the gate it can be rocked.
My question is :- How can I re-bond it, or what with? i.e. is it possible to squeeze some gunge in there to create sufficient bond again making it solid?
Sorry if it's not too good a description.
