Stronger the Second Time Around - Repointing

Repointing

Back

The repointing of exterior façades of brick and stone begins with examining the mortar joints and masonry to determine the condition of the existing building. Mortar joints that are defective are removed, cleaned, and repointed in order to reestablish a weather-tight masonry veneer.

Spray-O-Bond’s craftsmen are experts in matching new mortar joints with existing or adjacent mortar in color, texture and density. Spray-O-Bond performs petrographic tests on existing mortar to determine its compressive strength in order to best produce and install new mortar in relation to its masonry veneer materials. Properly executed this restoration technique returns the veneer to a structurally sound and watertight condition.
