Masonry Repointing

Preserve your masonry's appearance and durability with repointing services.

Overview

Masonry repointing involves renewing the outer portion of mortar joints in brick or stone structures.

Over time, mortar can deteriorate due to weathering, causing structural weakness and water intrusion.

Our team carefully removes old mortar and applies new, matching it to the original for a seamless look.

Signs you may need it

  1. You notice cracks in the mortar joints.
  2. There is water leaking through the masonry.
  3. The mortar has become crumbly or loose.
  4. You see moss or plant growth in the joints.

What happens on the visit

  1. Assess the condition of existing mortar and bricks.
  2. Remove deteriorated mortar without damaging surrounding masonry.
  3. Replace with new mortar, matching color and texture.
  4. Finish and seal the joints for durability and appearance.
