Brick Pointing

Brick Pointing Services in NYC and Tri-State

Brick pointing, often referred to as repointing, involves renewing the mortar joints between bricks to enhance both the structural integrity and the appearance of a building. Over time, factors such as weather, aging, and environmental conditions can lead to the deterioration of mortar, resulting in cracks and gaps that permit water infiltration. Effective brick pointing not only boosts the strength of the masonry but also elevates its visual appeal, safeguarding your property from expensive damage.

Inspection

We start with a detailed inspection to assess the condition of the mortar joints, identifying damage or wear. This helps us determine the best approach for repair and ensures a proper, long-lasting result.

Grinding

We use angle grinders to remove damaged mortar from the joints, ensuring they are clean and smooth for a strong bond with the new mortar.

Cleaning

After grinding, we thoroughly clean the joints to remove dust and debris, ensuring the new mortar adheres properly and creates a durable bond.

Applying the Mortar

We carefully apply the prepared mortar into the cleaned joints, ensuring it fills all gaps. The mortar is pressed and shaped to match the chosen pointing style, providing a smooth and secure finish.

Shaping and Finishing

We start with a detailed inspection to assess the condition of the mortar joints, identifying damage or wear. This helps us determine the best approach for repair and ensures a proper, long-lasting result.

Final Inspection

Once the mortar has cured, we conduct a final inspection to ensure the joints are even, strong, and aesthetically pleasing. Any necessary touch-ups or adjustments are made to achieve a perfect finish.
