Brick replacement, brick repair, and brick cleaning are several ways to protect your home from the elements while improving its curb appeal.

 

 

Tuckpointing 

Windsor, London, Hamilton,Toronto

 

Tuckpointing, as it is commonly known, or more correctly, re-pointing, is necessary to replace the old mortar that is in need of repair. With time the mortar between the bricks can become damaged, this damage allows water, humidity and moisture to destroy the integrity of the brick. Replacing the old mortar on your home will help preserve the brick by creating a new seal. As well this will help avoid more costly repairs in the future.
