What it means
What We Repair
- Mortar joints worn back from the face of the brick
- Stepped cracks and rust stains above windows, where the steel lintel is rusting
- Failed sealant at windows, doors and joints in the wall
- Loose, cracked or broken brick and stone
- Water getting into the building through the wall
How We Fix It
Tuckpointing grinds the worn mortar out to a set depth and packs in new mortar matched to the old. A rusting lintel means taking out the brick over the opening, cleaning or replacing the steel, adding flashing to keep water off it, and rebuilding the brick. Failed sealant comes out and new sealant goes in, so the joint is watertight again.
Put it off, and the water that gets behind the brick keeps rusting steel and pushing bricks loose every time it freezes. That is how a tuckpointing job becomes rebuilding a section of wall.

HOW THE WORK GOES
Four Steps, No Surprises
- We Walk the Site. You show us what is cracked, spalled, or leaking. We assess what failed and why.
- You Get a Written Punch List, Whether You Hire Us or Not. Each item names the problem and what caused it. If something is past saving, or does not need work for a few more years, the list says that too.
- If You Go Ahead, You Get a Fixed Scope and Price. Line by line, what we will do and what it costs. No allowances that balloon later.
- We Do the Fix and Prove It. The work gets done, checked, and documented before we call it complete.
