Brick & Stone Repointing

Historic stone and brick masonry wall repointing and tuckpointing with fresh mortar joints in Connecticut

Brick & Stone Repointing in Stamford, CT

Mortar joints wear out long before the brick or stone they hold. StoneForge Paving & Masonry repoints brick and stone walls, foundations, steps and chimneys with mortar matched in strength and color, restoring the masonry and keeping water out.

Why Repoint Your Masonry

Cracked, sandy or missing mortar lets water in, which freezes and pushes bricks and stones apart. Repointing replaces the failed mortar with new joints matched in strength and color, extending the life of the masonry and restoring a clean, sharp appearance.

We repoint masonry in Stamford, Greenwich and Norwalk. Related services include chimney repair, retaining walls and steps and stoops.

What We Repoint & What Affects the Cost

We repoint brick and stone facades, foundations, garden and retaining walls, steps, pillars and stone veneer, using mortar suited to the age and type of the masonry, including softer lime-based mixes for older buildings.

Cost depends on the area and height of the wall, the depth of joint damage, the type of masonry and mortar, access, and whether damaged bricks or stones need replacing. We give a free written estimate after an inspection.

  • Frequently Asked Questions

Brick & Stone Repointing FAQs

Common questions about worn mortar joints on walls, steps and foundations.

Mortar should be softer than the brick or stone around it. Mortar that is too hard can crack older masonry, so we choose a mix suited to your building.
