Brick Tuckpointing
Tuckpointing removes deteriorated mortar and replaces it with fresh mortar to restore brickwork. Helps protect against water intrusion and further damage. Suitable for walls, chimneys, and facades.
Tuckpointing restores brickwork by removing deteriorated mortar and replacing it with fresh mortar. It is appropriate when mortar joints are cracking, crumbling, or receding, which can let water into the wall and lead to further damage.
Lionstone performs tuckpointing on walls, chimneys, and facades, grinding out the old mortar to a proper depth and repacking the joints with new mortar. The process begins with a consultation to assess your brick and identify the areas that need attention.
Because the right scope depends on the condition of your brickwork, request a free estimate so Lionstone can review it in person.
