Tuckpointing and Masonry Repair in Loves Park, IL
Rockford Masonry Repair is a licensed and insured masonry contractor working throughout Loves Park, Illinois, along the east bank of the Rock River. We tuckpoint brick, repair chimneys, replace rusted lintels, and rebuild steps for homes and businesses across the city.
Loves Park built up newer than Rockford's old core. Most of the brick and block here takes a modern Type N or S portland mortar, not the soft lime mix the pre-1930 houses in the city need. That makes the repointing straightforward, but newer brick is not immune to Illinois winters.
The failures we see most in Loves Park are not whole walls. They are chimneys and lintels. A chimney takes weather on all four sides and spalls at the top no matter how new the house is, and the steel angle over a picture window or garage door rusts and lifts the brick above it. Both are water problems working on a sound wall.
We handle the full range here: tuckpointing and repointing, chimney repair, lintel replacement, and step and porch repair. Every job starts with a free on-site look and a written estimate.
Call (815) 555-0142 for a free estimate at your Loves Park home. We work this side of the river regularly and can usually get out quickly.
