Tuckpointing – Restoring Brickwork Integrity
Tuckpointing is the process of replacing deteriorated mortar joints with fresh, color-matched mortar to seal gaps and reinforce your walls.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I schedule chimney cleaning and inspection?
We recommend a professional chimney cleaning and inspection at least once a year. This helps remove creosote buildup, prevent fire hazards, and identify any masonry damage early before it becomes a costly problem.
What are common signs that my masonry needs repair?
Look for cracked mortar joints, flaking bricks, white powdery deposits (efflorescence), or loose stones. These are early indicators of moisture damage and should be addressed quickly to prevent structural deterioration.
How long does a typical masonry or chimney project take?
Most tuckpointing, chimney cleaning, or minor masonry repairs can be completed within one to three days, depending on the scope of work and weather conditions. Larger projects such as full chimney rebuilds or concrete restoration may take several days to a week to ensure proper curing and long-lasting results.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes! Midway Chimney & Masonry provides complimentary on-site inspections and written estimates so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.
