Bring In The Best Tuckpointing Contractors in Foxhall Crescent
Tuckpointing is a process that helps to protect your home from weather and time. By repairing the mortar between the bricks, tuckpointing prevents water from infiltrating the brick and causing damage.

How Our Foxhall Crescent Contractors Handle Tuckpointing
Step 1. Remove mortar joints
The first step in tuckpointing is to remove the old mortar. We usually use an angle grinder, as it is less time-consuming than using a hammer and chisel.
Step 2. Remove dust and debris
Using a masonry brush, we remove the dust and debris from the ground-out mortar joints. If the dust is too thick, we use a high-pressure air nozzle to do the job.
Step 3. Mix new mortar
Once the ground-out mortar joints are already clean, we mix the new mortar to make sure it matches the existing color of the brick.
Step 4. Fill the joints
Once the mortar is ready, we begin to fill the joints with the new mortar. In doing this, we start with the horizontal joints first.
Step 5. Smoothen
After applying the mortar to the joints, we smooth it to achieve a flat-looking surface. Depending on your request, we may also give it a slightly indented look.
Step 6. Make straight lines
When the new mortar starts to harden, we use a straightedge and a tuckpointing tool to make straight lines in the center of the joints. To make it look neat, we make sure that the lines we produce are as straight as possible.
