Brick and Masonry

Tuckpointing is a critical maintenance task and keeps water from entering the brick wall cavity. If water is allowed to get past the mortar and into the wall, brick failure may occur.

Tuckpointing is the term most often used to describe the process of cutting out deteriorated mortar joints in masonry walls to a uniform depth and filling in those joints with fresh motar. Tuckpointing isn’t reserved for older buildings. New masonry walls may need to be tuckpointed when bee holes or voids appear in the finished joint, or when the joints have an incorrect or improperly tooled finish, or when the color of the joints is incorrect.
