Tuckpointing is a form of masonry that involves grinding out and re-sealing the seams on a brick structure with new mortar. Harsh weather conditions such as wind, rain, snow and ice can cause the mortar between bricks to deteriorate over time.
This deterioration can result in cracked, loose or missing mortar between your bricks. This will allow moisture to enter into your brick chimney, steps, and porch, eventually resulting in the need to have them replaced. Having your bricks tuckpointed will protect your home from deterioration and eliminate the need for replacement which can cost thousands of dollars. Tuckpointing is less than half the cost of replacement.
Tuckpointing is simply the removal and replacement of deteriorated or degraded mortar. As read in many of the prior explanations, there are a number of situations which can cause the mortar between bricks to breakdown. This breakdown not only can create fire hazards and water damage but it also compromises the structural integrity of the chimney itself.
