1. CHIMNEY TUCKPOINTING ASSESSMENT
Whether you need chimney tuckpointing for your residential or commercial property, our process always begins with an evaluation. We look for damaged mortar and crumbling bricks to determine the type of repairs needed. We recommend a full repointing and chimney tuckpointing job for properties with extensive brick damage. This requires removing, replacing, and sealing damaged brick-and-mortar joints.
2. SAFETY PREPARATION
Safety is our top priority when chimney tuckpointing St. Louis properties. We start every project by scaffolding the worksite. Then, every crew member puts on a safety harness. Our safety measures prevent falls and other injuries, so you don’t have to worry about increased liability when choosing AHI for chimney tuckpointing in St. Louis.
3. BRICK AND MORTAR REMOVAL
Old mortar often contains silica dust, which can cause fatal lung problems when inhaled. To reduce our exposure and protect our clients, we use the latest grinding technology and self-cleaning vacuums to collect dust during removal.
4. MASONRY RESTORATION
Once we remove all the crumbling mortar and cracked bricks, our team gets to work restoring your property. We carefully choose new bricks and mortar to match your existing brickwork. Your new brick structures should look original to the building at the end of our chimney tuckpointing and repointing project.
5. BRICK AND MORTAR SEALING
A professional chimney tuckpointing job can last decades, but only if your tuckpointing contractor preserves their work. Approved seals your new brickwork to shield it from water damage and weather changes.
6. CHIMNEY TUCKPOINTING WARRANTY PERIOD
We want our clients to be 100% satisfied with our work. That’s why we offer a one-year warranty for chimney tuckpointing in St. Louis, whether it’s a minor chimney repair or a full brick facelift.
