We've recently moved house. The survey highlighted a couple of cracks running down from window frames, but said that there was no concern over ongoing movement.
We just need to repair them.

Interior is fine, I can cope with that.

Exterior, there there's a crack through the mortar for 6 or 8 courses of bricks. The crac's not big enough to get a coin in.
Is it just a case of digging out the cracked mortar, making up some new, and working as much as possible into the cracks?

Clear silicone is less obtrusive and just as effective for hairline cracks. Otherwise, chop out to 25mm.
