CRACKED MORTAR
WATER DAMAGED
MORTAR

Tuckpointing is a decorative finish
providing a sharp and symmetrical
outline to a wall face.
Historically a means to improve the
look of poor quality bricks or stone.
An even more impressive finish on
walls of high quality materials and
workmanship.
The tuckpoint lines being very light
(usually white) in colour separate the
different darker coloured
bricks/mortar.

HOW IT WORKS
Carefully remove existing worn
mortar to 15-20mm from the brick
face usually with a grinder and dust
vacuum, cleaning the joint out with
compressed air and or water.

Colour match and mix
replacement mortar injected
directly into the joint thru a
caulking gun. A proprietary acrylic
chemical when added to water in
the mix allows the mortar to flow
without smearing the brick or
stone face, ie no messy pushing off
a trowel.

The mortar is tooled flat almost flush
and not more than 1mm above the
brick or stone face filling damaged
and or irregular edges providing a flat
surface as done by the original tuck
pointer.

Lightly draw the positions of the
tuckpoint vertical and horizontal lines
as they were originally placed,
sometimes on the brick or stone face
to retain the pattern.

TECHNICAL EXCELLENCE
A 20 year warranty on correctly tooled finish to the mortar surface
providing there are no structural deficiencies or rising damp.
Mortar mix compliance with Australian Standards and or specific
client requirements.
