Tuck-pointing, the process of removing existing mortar and installing new mortar, is something that has to happen to all masonry buildings in their life time. Trust your building to the pros at D&R Masonry Restoration for all your tuck-pointing needs.
Tuck-pointing is an effective but labor-intensive technique. It’s important for the individuals doing the job to have real knowledge and experience so that they know that needs to be removed, whether or not the subject areas are beyond regular help, and if the structure has already taken on damage from broken mortar. From the proper removal of the existing mortar to the addition of the new mortar, the experts at D&R Masonry Restoration get the job done right, the first time. We not only perform this work expertly, we keep all the necessary elements in mind so that this process doesn’t cause any additional damage.
D&R Masonry Restoration has proudly completed tuck-pointing services for properties like the Southpark Square Apartments, Astoria Depot, Chown Pella Lofts, and Linfield College’s Northrup Hall. D&R Masonry Restoration Vice President Dan Elkins says: “Working on historic buildings is a specialty of ours". We treat all our projects with great care and attention, especially when it comes to something as delicate as tuck-pointing. We understand how important the service is to weathered, older buildings in particular – water damage can be very devastating for older properties where rebuilding is a difficult task.
If you are considering services such as façade stabilization or brick replacement as well, we can help with that – we even take special care to match the color of your original brick and mortar! Give D&R Masonry Restoration a call now.
Why Get Tuck-pointing?
Tuck-pointing is important to keep your structure’s masonry structurally sound. Mortar joints corrode over time and leave your property vulnerable to breakdown. Replacing the broken pointing refreshes your walls and essentially sets back the clock for them.
By choosing tuck-pointing, you save yourself the trouble, time, and cost of having tremendous potential damage within the masonry from water damage. It can also help remove the need for brick replacement. While the brick itself is dependable, mortar will eventually wear down at a far faster rate, often due to moisture. If cracks and breaks in the mortar allow moisture to get into the rest of your house it can be a nightmare. Replacing the pointing before it reaches breaking point allows you to rest easier knowing the structure is well protected against moisture damage now and for the future; it can absolutely save you further and worse mortar and brick replacement down the line.
Tuck-pointing is also a fantastic choice cosmetically. Because all the old mortar is replaced with the new, you can immediately see that fresh life has been added to your brick. Lines are clean and crisp and there is no more visible crumbling or degrading pointing.
If you are unsure whether or not your pointing needs replacement or repair, we’d be happy to talk to you and assess the situation. At D&R Masonry Restoration our goal is to keep your property in its best condition at all times… professional tuck-pointing can play a key part in that.
