Understanding The Basics of Tuckpointing

Tuckpointing is often described as a specialized mason method that embraces the idea of using two contrasting colors in the brick mortar to form the intricate and essential mortar joints of all types of brickwork. One of the mortar colors is chosen so it matches the color of the bricks themselves; the goal here with this method is to generate the impression that very fine joints have been made without all of the intricate and detailed work that would be involved to otherwise achieve the look. EMA Builders has done Tuckpointing on a range of homes and businesses in the area with amazing results and we can't wait to do the same for you and your home or business!

There are a number of thicknesses that can be achieved for the mortar lines in Tuckpointing and most instances will be found somewhere between 1 mm and 14 mm in thickness. The final thickness of the mortar depends on the personal preferences of the mason doing the work and the client as well as the type of stone or brink they are working with. The skilled masons at EMA Builders can deliver professional and high quality Tuckpointing to help your home or business look the best that it possibly can!
