Mortar Analysis

Sourcing Native Stone

Precision Tuckpointing

We extract and analyze a physical sample of your original mortar to determine its exact lime-to-sand ratio, color, and aggregate size.

Our team sources native limestone and fieldstone from regional quarries to ensure a seamless aesthetic and structural match with your existing walls.

We carefully rake out deteriorated joints by hand to protect delicate historic brick edges before applying the custom-blended mortar.
