Invisiweep wall weep vents are designed to do one job well: let water out of a cavity wall without letting anything unwanted back in. Water that builds up behind external masonry has to go somewhere, and if it can’t escape through the perpend joints, it will find its own way out — usually through somewhere you’d rather it didn’t. These vents sit in the vertical mortar joint and provide a clear drainage path while the mesh insert keeps insects, wind-blown debris and the odd curious spider from making themselves at home inside your cavity.
They’re a discreet solution. The name isn’t accidental. Once pointed in and the mortar sets, they’re barely noticeable from a few feet back, which matters on finished elevations where the brickie and the client both care about how the wall looks. Eight colour options — black, blue and black, brown, buff, clear, grey, terracotta, and white — means there’s a reasonable match for most standard brick types and mortar colours without having to squint too hard.
Where Invisiweep Wall Weep Vents Are Typically Used
These vents are most commonly installed at DPC level in new-build cavity walls, above lintels, and at any horizontal flashing point where trapped water needs a reliable exit route. They’re also used in retrofit situations where an existing wall shows signs of damp caused by blocked or absent weep points. Getting the right vent in place early is a lot cheaper than dealing with moisture damage after the fact — a point worth making to anyone who thinks they’re a nice-to-have rather than a necessity.
Colour Matching and Specification
The range of colours means these work across a wide variety of brick types, from pale buff stocks to deep terracotta facings. If you’re not sure which colour to specify, order a small number of options before committing to the full box — the clear variant is a reasonable fallback where matching is genuinely difficult. Supplied in boxes of 50, they’re priced sensibly enough for inclusion in new-build specifications without blowing the budget on what is, let’s be honest, a fairly small component with a fairly important job.
Pro Tip: Install weep vents at no more than 900mm centres along any horizontal DPC or flashing course, and always install at least one at each low point to avoid water pooling behind the outer leaf.
Invisiweep wall weep vents are used in brick cavity wall construction wherever water needs a controlled drainage point. Common locations include at DPC level above ground, over window and door lintels, above cavity trays, and at roof abutment flashings. They're used by bricklayers on new-build residential and commercial projects, and by retrofit installers remedying damp issues in existing cavity walls where original weep provision was inadequate or has become blocked over time.

Not suitable for: Not suitable for use in solid wall construction where there is no cavity to drain. Not a substitute for correct cavity tray installation where full water management is required.
Invisiweep vents are installed into the vertical perpend joint during bricklaying. The vent body is placed in the open joint before pointing, with the mesh face flush to the external face of the wall. Mortar is then packed around the vent body and finished to match the surrounding joints. Take care not to bridge mortar across the vent opening during pointing.
For retrofit installs, rake out the existing mortar from the perpend joint to sufficient depth, insert the vent, and repoint around it using a matching mortar mix. Allow the mortar to cure fully before exposing to heavy rain.
Select the vent colour that best matches the mortar or brick face on the finished elevation.
During bricklaying, leave the perpend joint open at each intended weep point rather than filling it with mortar.
Insert the vent body into the open perpend joint with the mesh face sitting flush with the external wall face.
Pack mortar firmly around the sides and back of the vent body, keeping the mesh face clear.
Point the joint neatly to match surrounding beds, taking care not to allow mortar to cover or block the mesh.
For retrofit work, rake out the existing mortar to at least 25mm depth before inserting the vent, then repoint as above.
How many weep vents do I need per course?
The general guidance is one weep vent per 900mm of wall length, positioned in every alternate perpend joint at each DPC or flashing level. Always include at least one vent at the lowest point of any drainage course so water cannot pool behind the outer leaf.
Can these be fitted into an existing wall without rebuilding the brickwork?
Yes. For retrofit installs, rake out the mortar from the perpend joint to around 25mm depth, slide the vent in with the mesh face flush to the wall surface, and repoint around it with a matching mortar. It's a straightforward job that doesn't require any bricks to be disturbed.
Which colour should I choose if I can't find an exact match?
The clear option works well where matching is difficult, as it picks up the surrounding colour visually once installed. If you're unsure, order a small number of different colours before committing to the full box of 50 so you can test them against the actual brickwork in daylight.
Invisiweep wall weep vents are manufactured from UV-stabilised plastic, suitable for permanent installation in external masonry. The mesh insert is sized to allow free water passage while resisting insect ingress. The body is dimensioned to fit within a standard perpend mortar joint in UK brickwork, sitting flush with the external face of the wall once installed and pointed.
