This guide helps you understand what tuckpointing is, and all related services.
What Is Tuckpointing?
Tuckpointing is a masonry restoration technique used to repair and strengthen brick, block, and stone structures.
According to local weather and seismic data, Silverton averages 200 minor quakes yearly. Over time, seismic activity, weather, moisture, and temperature changes cause mortar joints to weaken leading to cracks and deterioration.
To prevent this damage from escalating, we remove damaged mortar and replace it with fresh, high-quality mortar.
Investing in tuckpointing services today will benefit your home or commercial property in the following ways:
- Tuckpointing extends the life of your masonry by preventing moisture penetration, which causes bricks to lose or crack.
- Tuckpointing helps you avoid costly rebuilds and preserves the beauty and durability of your structures
