Tuckpointing
Tuckpointing
Tuckpointing is replacing the exterior layer of mortar between masonry units that have weathered or cracked. Tuckpointing is necessary to strengthen a masonry wall and prevent water infiltration. Tuckpointing is standard building maintenance and Bruno COnstruction completes it on a regular basis.
Lintel Replacement and Shelf Angle Replacement
Lintel Replacement and Shelf Angle Replacement
Lintels are the piece of steel directly above a window or door opening on a masonry wall. Lintels need to be replaced due to rusting and bending, which causes the lintel to fail. When there are step cracks at the corner of windows or the steel is bending, then these are sure signs the lintels need to be replaced.

Modac Coatings

Modac is an attractive way to protect concrete structures. We do not recommend sealing brick with Modac unless it has been previously painted already. We recommend this product for concrete high rises.

Sandblasting is typically used to remove paint or coatings off of masonry walls when other methods have failed. Bruno Construction Masonry is an experienced sandblasting contractor.

Grinding is done in order to remove the defective mortar from a joint. Grinding should be done to provide more room for new mortar to be put into the joint. We recommend grinding to a 3/4" depth prior to tuckpointing.
