Mortar repair that blends with your brick
Mortar wears out before brick does. When joints crack, crumble or wash out, water gets behind the brick. Tuckpointing and repointing replace the worn mortar so the wall sheds water again.

Questions
What is the difference between tuckpointing and repointing?
Repointing means removing worn or cracked mortar from the joints and packing in new mortar. Tuckpointing is a style of repointing that finishes the joint so the repair blends with the wall. People often use the two words for the same job.
How do I know if my mortar needs repair?
Common signs are mortar that crumbles when you scrape it, joints that look recessed or hollow, gaps around bricks, and stair-step cracks along the mortar lines. Send a photo with your quote request.
Can you repair just one section of wall?
Yes. Many jobs are a section of wall, a chimney, steps or a mailbox rather than the whole house. Jim quotes the area that needs it.
When is the best time for tuckpointing?
Fresh mortar cures best in mild, dry weather, so spring and fall are the usual seasons in Oklahoma. Spring tends to book up first.
