Expert Brick Restoration & Tuckpointing Services in Florida

Over time, brick surfaces take a beating from exposure to the elements, mold and mildew growth, sun fading, and wind or water erosion. Proper brick restoration requires more than a simple power wash or surface-level tuckpointing—it demands a detailed, professional approach to preserve both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.

At Stucco Solution System, we specialize in historic and modern brick restoration. Our experts take mortar samples to analyze their composition, identifying the root causes of deterioration. Many failures occur due to improper sand ratios in original mortar mixes, leading to weak, chalky, or dry mortar. Left unaddressed, this can result in brick movement, cracks, loose walls, and long-term damage.

Why Proper Brick Restoration Matters

Many contractors claim that a simple power wash and tuckpointing is enough. However, using off-the-shelf mortar over old mortar often leads to cracking, peeling, and recurring damage. At Stucco Solution System, we follow industry-standard procedures, including:

• Correct mortar mix identification and replication

• Proper bonding between old and new mortar layers

• Installation of expansion and control joints for maximum performance

• Wall anchors and moisture management for long-lasting results

With our approach, your historic brick can look as stunning as the day it was installed—lasting decades without recurring problems.
