I had been patching up some loose render on a low wall and noticed most of the brick behind it was blown and rotted so I dismantled most of it. I'm now left with one course of brick which is nearly level and in good condition (the pavement angles downward), so I'm hoping not to remove it. Problem is, it's backed by a breeze block slab which has been sunk halfway into the ground, with the top half rotting away. I was thinking forming a concrete slab above the first course around the whole lot, and then bricking over the top of that new footing (the whole lot will be rendered and dashed later anyway). Will this work? Or do I need to dig everything out and start again? Any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated. - David
