I'm replacing the joists in a downstairs bedroom and on one wall the bricks around the joists had fallen out.
I've put the new joists in and now need to replace the bricks that sit next to the ends.
Should the bricks be tight to the joists or should there be a gap? Some on the other side have a gap filled with mortar, should I replicate this?
