Is your Federation, Victorian, or Edwardian home losing its original charm due to faded mortar? Grizzly Heritage delivers traditional tuckpointing services across Sydney, recreating crisp, colour-contrasted joints with MXL mortar for lasting durability.
Tuckpointing is a specialised technique that originated in 18th-century England, involving the application of two contrasting colours of mortar to create the illusion of perfectly uniform brick joints. This decorative finish is commonly found on Victorian, Federation, and Edwardian architecture.
We are highly skilled in both traditional and modern tuckpointing in Sydney, and we tailor our method to suit the needs of each building. Whether you're restoring a facade or renovating your entire home, our tuckpointing work dramatically enhances the aesthetics and value of your property.
"Tuckpointing isn’t just cosmetic, it shields your bricks from Sydney’s coastal salt and humidity."
We use only the highest quality mortar mixes, including MXL-based additives, to ensure clean, sharp lines and lasting durability. Our careful colour matching and hand-applied mortar techniques result in an authentic finish that respects the original architecture.
If you want to revive the stunning character of your home or restore it to its former glory, call Grizzly Heritage for expert tuckpointing services in Sydney.
Q: What’s the difference between tuckpointing and repointing?
A: Repointing fixes structural issues with mortar, while tuckpointing is decorative, enhancing the visual lines between bricks.
Q: How long does tuckpointing last?
A: When done with MXL and maintained well, tuckpointing can last 15–25 years, depending on exposure.
Q: Can you match the original style of my Federation home?
A: Yes. We specialise in colour-matched, heritage-compliant tuckpointing for Victorian, Federation, and Edwardian homes.
Q: Do you work on modern homes too?
A: Absolutely. While it's popular on older buildings, we also tuckpoint newer brick homes for visual enhancement.
