Mortar Joint Repair | Re-pointing Service
Tuckpointing is a process used in masonry work, particularly in brick or stone structures, to repair or replace mortar joints between bricks or stones.
Mortar joints can deteriorate over time due to weathering, moisture, and other environmental factors. Tuckpointing involves removing the damaged or deteriorated mortar and replacing it with new mortar to enhance the structural integrity and appearance of the masonry.

Here’s a basic overview of the tuckpointing
process:
– Assessment: Inspect the mortar joints to determine the extent of deterioration and identify areas that need attention.
– Preparation: Remove any loose or damaged mortar using tools such as a chisel or grinder. It’s important to reach a depth that allows proper adhesion of the new mortar.
– Cleaning: Clean the joints and surrounding masonry to remove dust, debris, and any contaminants that might hinder the bonding of the new mortar.
– Mixing Mortar: Prepare a mortar mix that matches the color and composition of the existing mortar. This is crucial for maintaining a consistent appearance.
