Bungalow mortar care near the city line
Park Ridge's brick bungalows and two-flats still carry early-to-mid-century joints that wash out under Chicago-area freeze-thaw. We tuckpoint street facades and side walls with color-matched mortar, keeping the classic bungalow rhythm intact instead of smearing a uniform gray.
Our process
- 1 Your home is our neighborhood, so we treat it with respect Crumbling mortar or small gaps appearing between bricks is common here — it's what winters across the North Shore do to homes over time. Water finds its way in, freezes, and slowly pushes joints apart. We'll visit, assess honestly, and explain exactly what's needed.
- 2 We focus on the details that make the difference We carefully remove the old mortar, clean the joints thoroughly, and custom-mix new mortar to blend with your home's original look and feel. Every joint is then shaped to mirror the profile your original masons created. This is meticulous work, and we give your house the same time and care as our own.
- 3 Our commitment continues long after we finish Proper tuckpointing should protect your home for 25–30 years, and we guarantee every joint we repair. As a local family business, you'll spot us around Park Ridge — at the store, around town. Our name is on our truck and on our work, always.
