If you see cracks, loose or spalling bricks, or crumbling mortar, it’s a sign your masonry may need attention before the damage gets worse.
Absolutely. Targeted repairs like repointing or replacing damaged sections can restore both strength and appearance.
Repointing is the process of replacing damaged mortar joints to a proper depth. Repointing is a structural repair. Oftentimes, tuckpointing is cosmetic and not structural. It’s needed when mortar begins to crack or deteriorate.
Weather changes, moisture, and natural settling are the most common causes, especially in older buildings. The improper use of modern mortars with softer historic brick and stone can hasten damage.
When done correctly, repairs can last for many years and help extend the life of the structure.
If your brick, block, or stone surfaces are damaged, professional repair can make a lasting difference.
