About This Site

Lincolnwood Tuckpointing is a local referral service, and we say that plainly because you deserve to know who you're calling. We are not ourselves a masonry crew swinging trowels. What we do is simpler: we maintain relationships with independent, insured masonry and tuckpointing contractors who actually work in Lincolnwood, Niles, Morton Grove, and the near-north suburbs of Chicago, and when you reach out, we connect you with one directly.

Why use us instead of searching around on your own? Because a search result tells you nothing about whether a contractor shows up, quotes honestly, or matches old mortar instead of slapping modern mix on a 1958 brick wall. We refer a small number of local pros whose work we track: firm up-front quotes, whether they pull the right village permit for chimney and structural jobs, and whether the finished repointing actually blends with the surrounding brick. If a pro stops meeting that bar, they stop getting our referrals. That's the whole business model, and it only works if the homeowners we refer end up glad they called.

We may be compensated by the professionals we refer. That never changes your price: you pay the pro the same quoted rate you'd pay calling them directly.

If a job doesn't go the way it should, tell us. We'll follow up with the pro directly, and if that doesn't get it resolved, we'll point you to someone else in our network instead of leaving you stuck. The fastest way to reach a person is a call to (224) 347-9439, or use the contact form any time.
