Most homeowners use bricks as the main holding material that makes up our homes. Bricks not only give off a gorgeous appearance, but their strong, durable, reliability is another reason why so many people that own a home decide to use brick as its main foundation. Bricks are joined together with mortar, but mortar can deteriorate over time due to weather. Rain, wind, ice, cold or excessive heat can weaken the mortar. The mortar basically has to be replaced so that leaks and other kinds of structural problems do not occur. This is called brick pointing. Many older buildings tend to see mortar weaken faster because of the age of the building or home and the amount of weathering it has gone through over the years. You can do brick pointing yourself, if you have the right materials, but you will need plenty of patience and time to get the job done right. Depending upon how large the job is, you may want to call in a professional to do most of the tedious work. If you are going solo on the project you will need goggles, a hammer, a broom, a chisel, and gloves, along with other safety equipment. You can use the hammer and chisel to clean up the damaged mortar until you reach the solid mortar base. You will need to mix new waterproof mortar as instructed, and try to work in warmer temperatures (at least above 40 degrees) so the mortar does not set too quickly. Sound like a tough job? Well it is not as tough as it is time consuming, and it may be best to call in Nombach Home Exteriors to take care of the problem.
