Planning the joint work on your Park Central chimney
Plain talk about mortar from the crew that does the pointing in Park Central.
Joints below the roofline
The part of the chimney you can see above the roof is only part of it. Where a chimney runs down an exterior wall or through the attic, joints there can show wear as well, often from water that entered higher up.
Where access allows, our team looks at the chimney below the roofline and from the attic of your Park Central home during the free inspection. If lower joints need attention, they are added to the estimate as their own area, priced so you can decide on them separately.
Judging the brick before choosing the mix
Preservation Brief 2 notes that a simple, non-technical look at the masonry units and mortar can tell a lot about their relative strength and permeability, which are the key factors in choosing a repointing mortar.
Our crew looks at the brick on your Park Central chimney for hardness, surface texture and signs of wear, and compares it with the existing joints. A hard, dense brick and a soft, older brick call for different mixes, and the estimate records the choice we make and why. A quick look now avoids the wrong mix later.
A stiffer mix for pointing
Repointing mortar is mixed drier than the mortar used for laying brick. Technical Note 46 describes a workable consistency that is drier than conventional mortar, which lets it be packed firmly into the joint without slumping or smearing across the faces.
Our masons adjust the mix on your Park Central chimney through the day as conditions change. A mix that is too wet runs and stains, and one that is too dry will not compact, so getting it right is part of the craft of pointing. It is a skill learned by doing.
