New York is known for brick houses. This is because brick properties are strong and resilient. However, if you neglect them, you may cause long term damages. It might not appear very noticeable in the beginning, but when you discover something that needs to be fixed, we at Aslam and Sons recommend taking quick steps in repairing your property before it turns into a bigger problem which may eventually spread into the interior of the house. If left unattended, the smaller issues may ultimately make you pay more for avoidable repairs.
Brick pointing or tuck pointing is the process where bricks are combined together with proper application of the cement. The correct procedure has to be followed in order to get a long-term result. Only a skilled and professional person can guarantee you to do the right thing at the right time. Fortunately, we have years of brick-pointing experience and countless satisfied clients all over New York City.
We at Aslam and Sons offer you the best possible quality work with over 25 years of experience. We want to make sure that we do the right job to please our customers so that we can build a long-term relationship. The right way to perform brick pointing is to clean out the area with high pressure water flow which is known as steam cleaning. The high pressure water flow will remove all the loose cement from the brick joints and create more room to apply new cement in between the bricks and ensure to be long-lasting. We also remove brick joints by grinding and repoint the bricks upon customers’ requests.
If you do not maintain it, potential harm can come your way over time. For example, rainy and windy weather can make the brick joints more wobbly. In cold weather, your heating system may not work the way you want. Consequently, mold will create more damage on your inner walls, which will become a health issue over time. You do not want to wait until it is too late.
