Tuckpointing Services
Masonry Repairs & Restoration
Tuckpointing involves removing deteriorated mortar from between bricks or stones to a depth of approximately 5/8 inch and replacing it with fresh, durable mortar. This process helps restore the strength and stability of masonry structures while improving their overall appearance.
Our team carefully applies new mortar with a concave joint finish, which is known for providing better resistance against water penetration. We also focus on achieving the closest possible color match to the existing mortar to maintain a consistent and natural look.
