Iowa’s Trusted Masonry & Tuckpointing Contractors
Tuckpointing is an essential maintenance technique for brick and mortar buildings. While brick tends to last for about a century, mortar has a much shorter lifespan. Depending on how exposed your masonry is to excess water and other harsh conditions — like the harsh Iowa winters — mortar lasts about 25 years. When mortar joints become damaged, the most cost-effective action you can take as a homeowner can take is to repair affected areas via tuckpointing. The alternative is to allow the mortar joints to deteriorate to the point that the brick system collapses, which makes a complete rebuild necessary — and is significantly more expensive! Tuckpointing has some awesome benefits. Here are a few:
- Enhanced Structural Integrity
- Improved Water Resistance
- Increased Energy Efficiency
- Aesthetic Appeal
Don’t let your brick structures get to that point! Instead, let the experienced tuckpointing contractors at Iowa Tuckpointing provide quality tuckpointing services that will save you money in the long run.
