I've got a lower corner of my house and the corner of a nearby garage suffering from dissolving mortar. Because they are separate buildings I can't work out what it could be - rain water blowing into the brick/poor guttering or a mains leak underneath the house...it's a newish house still under 10yr house builders guarantee - just- perhaps it's just crap mortar!
Any ideas on what would be the best way forward? Is this a job for a surveyer?
