Why Brick Pointing Matters in Manhattan
Manhattan buildings face constant damage from:
Pollution
Traffic vibrations
Old building structures
Very cold winters and hot summers
Regular exposure to wind and moisture
With time, mortar joints can crack, chip, or fall out. Without quick brick repointing, water can enter walls and cause decay and mold. It can also bring DOB violations. Makkah Brickpointing repairs your building with careful work that follows NYC rules and matches its look.
