Why Mortar Repairs Matter

Mortar holds your masonry together. Over time, exposure to moisture, sun, and shifting can cause it to crack, crumble, or fall away. When mortar fails, it allows water to seep into the wall, leading to interior leaks, structural movement, and deterioration of the brick or stone itself.

Damaged mortar is also a common entry point for insects, moisture, and freeze-thaw damage in colder months. Proper repairs help prevent bigger issues like brick spalling, loose veneer, or hidden wall damage.

Signs You Need Mortar Repair

  • Cracks running through or between bricks

  • Gaps or crumbling mortar joints

  • Discoloration or erosion from water exposure

  • Loose bricks or shifting stonework

  • Water stains on interior walls or ceilings

  • Dust or sand collecting at the base of the wall

If ignored, small mortar cracks can allow water into the wall cavity, damaging the framing and insulation behind it. That’s why timely mortar repair is key—not just for looks, but for protection.

Our Mortar Repair Process

  1. Inspection & Assessment
    We start with a thorough inspection of the masonry to determine where the mortar has failed and whether surrounding bricks or stone have been affected.

  2. Mortar Removal
    We carefully grind out the damaged mortar joints to a proper depth without harming surrounding materials.

  3. Matching & Mixing
    We mix a new mortar that closely matches the existing joint in both color and texture to keep the repair as close as possible.

  4. Repacking & Finishing
    Mortar is packed into joints by hand and tooled to match the original profile. This ensures a consistent finish that blends with the surrounding area.

  5. Cleanup & Final Inspection
    Once the mortar is cured, we clean the surface and inspect the entire repair area for quality and consistency.
