How Do Professionals Resolve Chimney Masonry Damages?

Whatever type of damage you have, we have the skills, techniques, and tools to provide beautiful and effective restoration work. Most often, we’ll be able to resolve masonry damage for our Chicagoland customers with either tuckpointing or brick replacement services. That said, if a full chimney rebuild is in order, we can help with that too.

• Tuckpointing: The mortar joints that rest between the brick of your fireplace or chimney are designed to provide structural support. Unfortunately, holes, cracks, age, and moisture damage can cause this mortar to recede or deteriorate, which can then compromise the look and longevity of the chimney structure. If receding or damaged mortar joints are the problem with your fireplace or chimney, our expert tuckpointing services are the answer. During this restoration process, we’ll grind out the damaged mortar and color match fresh mortar to go in its place. With Leonard & Sons performing the work, you can expect clean, attractive results that strengthen and enhance your fireplace and chimney.
• Brick Replacement: We tend to think of bricks as impervious to damage, but they’re not. Moisture, vegetation growth, cracks, holes, efflorescence, freeze/thaw cycles, and popping facing can all leave brick structurally compromised and unattractive looking. If your brick is in need of replacement, we can help. We carefully select brick that matches the brick used in the construction of your fireplace and chimney, so that the results are strong, long lasting, and beautiful.
