Great price, great service.
From start to finish, our experience with North Shore Brickwork and Windows was excellent. They scheduled us quickly and the workers were thorough, respectful, and responsive. It took them exactly the time they said it would, and there were no "extras" in terms of cost. Overall, a great experience and I would highly recommend.

Trustworthy
Their initial estimate was not the cheapest but also not the most expensive. I ultimately decided to go with them based on many good reviews on Home Advisor. My experience:
1) Promptly scheduled and performed service within a week of contacting them
2) Honored initial estimate even though project required more work than anticipated
3) Final result looks clean and met expectations
4) Can't comment on long-term quality, but nothing at present that raises concern
5) Would contact them again for future projects and would recommend them to a friend or neighbor

Highly professional service - great responsiveness!
Found these folks on Home Advisor.com. After bad experiences with two previous Tuckpointing companies, we have found our partners to take care our our vintage building's ongoing needs. Being a larger 6 flat, Les and his associates broke down the areas needing attention from most urgent to areas we can get to later. His workers were on-site promptly, doing excellent work with clean up each day. The whole group were courteous, knowledgeable, flexible with change orders, exacting in matching 90 year old bricks, and very involved with every aspect of the job. Looking forward to having them back next summer, to begin the next phase of brick repair work. I highly recommend this organization for your Tuckpointing needs. Fortunate to have found them!

Mortar wash on a brick facade can only be reapplied or the underlying brick rebuilt. It is not recommended to cover the entire brick to mortar transitions which can eliminate the ability to address repairs on a brick by brick basis.

A common misconception is that paint can slow down or seal a deteriorating brick. Paint does not “seal” a brick but rather traps the moisture within it accelerating the deterioration.

Step cracks on the corners of your window can be indicative of a deteriorating steel lintel which should be replaced to avoid damaging the wall

Seeing discolored brick in your wall can mean 1 of 2 things: either there is dirt and grime running off (easily removed) or there is mildew growing inside of the brick and mortar. Mildew indicates prolonged water intrusion which should be addressed to avoid further damage and repairs. The issue resulted from open coping joints at the top of the roof. Check your roof copings every 3 years to ensure the joints and seams remain sealed and water does not enter the wall to begin the damage.

Bricks at the bottom of the walls are usually the first to spall. Gravity pulls the moisture from the brick above to the bottom. The lower level bricks stay wet which causes efflorescence and spalling

Unfortunately, if you coat the exterior of a brick a lot of times you will eliminate any future options you have with that brick other than to replace it.

If the brickwork is located at ground level, it is must faster (and less expensive) to repair than up high on a wall. Don’t be intimidated by your masonry structure. Ask an expert what your options are

Mineral deposits can be pesky. We recommend waterproofing jumbo sized brick to limit the secretion of lime and calcium in scenarios like these.
