Tuckpointing and Masonry Repair in Cherry Valley, IL
Rockford Masonry Repair serves Cherry Valley, Illinois, in the Kishwaukee valley southeast of Rockford. We are a licensed and insured masonry contractor, and we tuckpoint brick, repair and replace failed brick, seal masonry, and rebuild chimneys across the village.
Cherry Valley straddles the Winnebago and Boone county line, and it straddles the ages too. The old village center holds brick from long before the newer commercial and residential edges that grew out toward the interstate. One town, two very different kinds of wall.
That mix decides the mortar. The old center wants a soft lime match, while the newer construction takes a modern Type N or S blend. Get it backward on the old brick and the joint ends up harder than the brick around it, which pushes the next freeze into the brick face. We check the wall's age before we mix.
We cover tuckpointing and repointing, brick repair, breathable sealing, and chimney repair in Cherry Valley. Every job starts with a free on-site estimate.
