Bert Tuckpointing & Restoration, Inc

We received quoted from 2 other companies. Bert's was tied for the the most comprehensive in their assessment of work to be done, and also matched the best price. They performed the work exactly to the quote. While it took a couple of weeks for the weather to cooperate, they were able to complete the work in one day and followed up with the selaer in two weeks per promised. I recommend Bert Tuckpointing to the highest extent possible.

Hopefully this work will finally solve the water leak problems we have been battling for the last 3-4 years. A previous $4000 tuck pointing job in 2007 (by another contractor) apparently was only a band-aid. Robert (owner of BERT Tuckpointing) seemed to know the true nature of the problem: a) Deteriorated lintels.. I-beams above windows b) An overly ambitious flashing job by window contractor who replaced windows in 2003). NOTE: If you are replacing windows be sure your contractor leaves some air space between the flashing and bricks above each window. "Weepers" should be installed as well to wick water out instead of pooling inside your walls!!! We learned this the hard and expensive way! Bob's workers were extremely careful in erecting their scaffolding and in protecting our plants and foliage. They took special care in putting tarps over our bushes and hydrangeas so none of them would get damaged by falling mortar. The guys were very courteous and when the job was done and scaffolding taken down I could not tell that any work was ever performed in the area. They are THAT good! Time will tell if this truly solves our water problem. I had to tear out plaster and drywall on the interior side of the walls and can now view the in-the-wall bricks. It is supposed to rain a lot this week so I'll know if we really fixed this for good. I highly recommend BERT Tuckpointing for their promptness, honesty and customer care. Bob is a really nice guy, too!
