"everyone that I dealt with at Groundworks exhibited a high level of professionalism and pride in their company. Daniel Raymond presented himself as knowledgeable and confident as to what Groundworks could help me do. He was very thorough and left me with no doubt that they could fix our problem."
"I have close to 10 acres that Kody and Kent and their employees have mowed, weed whacked, edged and installed an irrigation for my garden. These men are incredible and have done just about anything you can think of and more. If something isn’t perfect they come right back and make it perfect. I’m an older handicapped woman, if I asked them to carry a box into my house or decorate a Christmas tree, they’d do it! They also are very kind with impeccable manners. They’ve taken care of my property for over 3 years without a problem. I’m moving and wish I could take them with me. I give them the highest recommendation possible. I suggest anyone looking for any of the services they perform, hire them. Thank you so much guys!"

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.
Modern brick homes have a brick facade over standard framing and sheathing, so the brick offers minimal added structural stability. A home with traditional brick construction is more durable than a stick-built home, as the double-layer brick walls and rebar resist higher lateral wind loads and support heavier loads up top, as well.
Brick is the closest choice when seeking to capture the timeless look of stone with a more practical and budget-friendly option. When comparing stone versus brick siding, the price range of $200,000 to $400,000 for average brick home construction is dramatically lower compared to the cost of building a stone home. If you'd like to keep the stone aesthetic without the cost, stone veneer and manufactured stone are both less expensive than real stone.
You should generally drill into the mortar joints when installing shutters on brick. Mortar is softer, which makes drilling easier and puts less strain on your tools. It also lowers the risk of cracking a brick—something that’s a lot harder to fix. Mortar holds fasteners well enough for standard shutters, and if you ever need to patch the holes later, it’s a much simpler job than dealing with damaged brick. Just keep in mind that if your mortar joints are too thin or the hardware calls for brick anchoring, you'll need to check the manufacturer’s recommendations and adjust accordingly.
Chimney mortar typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on its quality, local weather conditions, and maintenance. Over time, exposure to moisture, freezing, and thawing cycles can cause mortar to deteriorate, leading to cracks and gaps. Regular inspections and timely repairs, such as repointing or tuckpointing, can extend the lifespan of chimney mortar by ensuring the structure's integrity.
