The mortar between your bricks does quiet, important work. It holds the wall together and keeps water out. When it starts to crack, crumble, or turn to powder, the whole wall is at risk. At R&R Roofing and Masonry, we know most homeowners don't notice failing mortar until it's bad. So we take a close look and tell you honestly where things stand. We come out, check your joints, and explain what your brick needs. No pressure, just straight answers.
Tuckpointing is careful work, and we do it right. We grind out the old, failing mortar and pack in fresh mortar that matches your brick in color and texture. Done well, you can barely tell where the old ends and the new begins. Marchello grew up in masonry, starting at age 10, and has spent 20 years restoring brick around Elk Grove Village. He knows how to match materials and how to make a repair that holds. We use top-grade mortar built to handle Illinois freeze and thaw, on chimneys, walls, and every kind of brick surface.
Strong mortar means a strong wall. Restore it, and you keep water out, stop further damage, and bring your brick back to looking sharp. That's what good tuckpointing buys you, years of protection and curb appeal in one job. We're licensed, insured, and bonded, so your home stays protected the whole way through.
