Brick masonry tuckpointing involves the process of repairing and restoring the appearance and integrity of brickwork by removing deteriorated mortar from between bricks and replacing it with fresh mortar that matches the original in color and texture. This work typically includes careful inspection of the existing mortar joints, cleaning the brick surfaces, and meticulously applying new mortar to ensure a seamless finish that maintains the structure's aesthetic and structural stability.
