What is Tuckpointing?

Tuck pointing is the task of renewing the mortar or the compound holding the bricks or stones together. Over a lengthy period of time, mortar can crack and get damaged from the shifting in the building or from facing the weather year in and year out. If you have damaged masonry work and mortar, fret not! We are the  experts to make your structure looking as good as new!
You can trust us to examine and assess any of the sort of damage and we can leave you with a free no obligation quote! Call now at 604-703-6145

​Now this may seem like a simple task to tackle on your own and you are welcome to research on how to do this on your own. We must warn you though, that it is harder than it looks.

Before the mortar should be mixed and installed, the old mortar needs to be chiseled and grinded out of the way. This takes some time and you would need to purchase or borrow a grinder. Next up is adding in the correct amount of water to the compound (instructions should be found on the bag or box). Once the mortar is applied, the compound needs to set up for a certain period of time before it can be striked by a striker tool. Waiting at the right time will leave a creamy smooth finish which will help waterproof the joints.

 In many cases, making something older look new again can take time, skill, and the know how. Deciding to take on your own tuckpointing project can be costly. This is because this type of job can go messy if not taken carefully. Excess mortar could easily get onto the brick and the project could end up looking worse! The mortar could be wiped at an incorrect time resulting in potential damage in the future or could be dried too hard or too thin to wipe properly. When it comes to your chimney, fireplace, or wall, it is best left to your most trusted bricklayer to get it back to its good looks it deserves. 604-703-6145
