The Brick Pointing Process
The first thing we do during a brick pointing job is inspect the mortar. We'll decide on the best methods to proceed with and whether or not we need to remove any of the mortar. We'll make sure that any mortar we use to replace older mortar matches the type, color, and texture of the existing mortar. We'll also take a sample of the mortar to help us identify the components, ratio, and aggregate.
We remove any damaged mortar until we reach the point where the sound mortar is, which is a slow and careful process. If your building uses any softer materials, we may need to remove them by hand in order to avoid any damage. If the mortar is harder, we'll use a grinder or a blade and take special care not to damage any of the masonry units.
When brick pointing isn't done correctly, it can cause feathering of the mortar edge, which isn't just unappealing to the eye but can also cause the mortar to erode quickly. For this reason, hiring a professional you know you can trust with the job is important, and the qualified masonry contractors at Eden Roofing & Waterproofing NYC are the perfect choice for you.
