Some guys come from the ranch, and they claim to know about tuckpointing, or repointing, and when it comes to grinding, they use a chisel, if they don't have the grinder. When it comes to the pointing, they use their fingers instead of using the proper tools to shape the mortar joint, once you give the mortar its final touch.
We have a list of contractors on our website who do repointing: directory.chicagobungalow.org/?filter_directory_category%5B%5D=212&drts_route=directory-cba&page_id=132&filter=1&sort=post_title&num=10 They have all been used and recommended by other Chicago Bungalow owners.
It’s not that filling in motor gaps is wrong, it’s far cheaper. Only 30 seconds before the end, does the guy say repointing is labor intensive. My guess to do that bungalow is $60,000 to $75,000 with cutting, chiseling and reapply new mortar.
