Tuckpointing

What is tuckpointing?

Tuckpointing is a form of masonry that involves grinding out and re-sealing the seams on a brick structure with new mortar. Harsh weather conditions such as wind, rain, snow and ice can cause the mortar between bricks to deteriorate over time. This deterioration can result in cracked, loose or missing mortar between your bricks. This will allow moisture to enter into your brick steps, chimney, foundation, or other brick structures eventually resulting in the need to have them replaced. Having your bricks tuckpointed will protect your home from deterioration and eliminate the need for replacement which can cost thousands of dollars. Tuckpointing is less than half the cost of replacement.

Power Washing

Efficient. Reliable. Exceptional Service.

Power Washing can help to brighten any of the brick structures around your home. Mold can often create dark and slippery surfaces on areas outside of your home. This not only can be dangerous, but also keeps your home from looking its' best. Power Washing will have your steps, porch, chimney, and driveway looking like new again.

Sealing

An additional layer of defense against moisture. 

In addition to tuckpointing, we offer the option to have your brick structures sealed with high-grade weatherproofing sealant. The sealant we use is a water repellent that prevents moisture from penetrating your chimney, porch, steps, etc. This added layer of defense against moisture may be just the thing needed to protect your bricks from another harsh Cleveland winter!
