How much is reasonable to pay for re-pointing?

Hi,

Any idea how much is reasonable to pay for re-re-pointing?

The house has been repointed in the past but whoever has done it did not blend the new mortar in very well so it is very obvious where it has been done (see below) so we would like to rectify this if possible. I think there are roughly 6 lines / patches which would want re-doing.

    That won't take very long at all. Not even an hour, although you might get charged slightly more as it wouldn't be worth a lot of peoples time. I would have thought about £30-£50 top price.
