Tuckpointing Seattle

Tuckpointing is an extremely popular masonry technique used to freshen up the look and feel of brick buildings. At Rife Masonry, our masonry contractors have perfected this technique over the years, thus making it a “go-to” service for us.

What is Tuckpointing?

While brick can last centuries, mortar tends to deteriorate over time, only having a lifespan of around 25-30 years. This means the material must be maintained, or your brick structure will eventually weaken and crumble. Tuckpointing is the process of removing the old, deteriorated mortar joints and filling in the gaps between the brickwork with new mortar. This preserves the structural integrity of the building without actually having to replace any bricks. If you want to maintain the value and appearance of your brick building, tuckpointing is the best way to do so.

Benefits of Brick Tuckpointing

There are several reasons why you might want to consider tuckpointing for your brick building or home:

Improved Appearance

Tuckpointing isn't solely for functional purposes. It dramatically improves the appearance of your brick building, making it look years younger.

Increased Lifespan

Because tuckpoint preserves the integrity of your brick masonry, it increases the lifespan of your brick building. You can be rest assured its quality and integrity will last for years to come.

Increases Property Value

Old, worn-out mortar joints stick out like an old thumb, bringing down your building's appearance and property value. The more aesthetically pleasing your building or home is, the more it will be worth.

Prevents Deterioration

Tuckpointing helps to stop your building's mortar joints from further deteriorating. This, in turn, protects your bricks from cracking or breaking, putting your building's structural integrity in jeopardy.
