- Structural brick repair and lintel replacement
- Waterproofing and sealing of masonry surfaces

Why Pointing Matters More Than It Looks
Mortar joints are your brick wall's weather seal. When they crumble, water gets in, freezes, and starts popping bricks — and by then a $2,000 pointing job has become a $20,000 wall rebuild. If your joints are receding, cracking, or growing plants, it's time.
- Color-matched mortar so repairs disappear
- Proper joint raking — not smeared "buttering" over bad joints
- Correct mortar type for your brick's age (older brick needs softer mortar — hard modern mortar destroys it)
How It Works
- Inspection & free estimate — we photograph problem areas and show you.
- Mortar matching — test patch if needed.
- Rake, repair, repoint — old joints cut out properly, not covered.
- Cleanup & seal — walls washed, optional water repellent.
- Walkthrough — repairs should be hard to find. That's the standard.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my house needs repointing?
Look for receding or cracked mortar joints, white staining (efflorescence), interior damp spots, or loose bricks. Any of those — call us for a free look.
Will the repair match my existing brick?
Yes. We color-match mortar and source matching brick. On older homes we use appropriately soft mortar so the repair doesn't damage historic brick.
Can you fix a leaning retaining wall?
Sometimes it's repairable; often leaning means the wall has failed behind the face and needs a rebuild with proper drainage. We'll tell you straight, with photos.
Do you repair chimneys?
Yes — from crown and cap repairs to full above-roof rebuilds.
Is masonry work seasonal?
Mortar needs above-freezing temperatures to cure properly. We schedule around weather and use cold-weather practices in shoulder seasons — we won't point your wall in a hard freeze just to make a date.
