I would likely start with a hammer and chisel and see if I could remove the lose mortar and pieces of broken brick to allow pouring some new anchor cement into the hole. At some point I would grab my hammer drill and see if I could drill down beside the iron work to get a deeper pocket. I would use my shop-vac to suck out all the bits and when I felt I had enough removed I would mix up some Rapid Set Cement-All and pour it in to the holes.



Do a google search it is sold in the home centers and there are videos of how it is to work with.

Thank you. For the rapid cement is quikrete a good brand or is there a better one. Also is there any type of applicator gun i could use to apply it since its a very narrow area and would like to ensure precision and less mess since this is the first time im doing this

A friend of mine in mounting a tire changer in his gas station poured melted sulfur around the bolts in drilled holes.
