When Brick and Mortar Start Failing, Your Property Pays the Price

Crumbling mortar joints, cracked bricks, water stains creeping across your facade. You see the damage growing, but repairs feel overwhelming. Small cracks become structural threats. Failing tuckpointing lets moisture seep deeper into the walls.

If you wait, the cost climbs fast. Water damage spreads behind the brick. Foundation shifts. Chimney stability weakens. What started as cosmetic wear turns into expensive structural work you could have avoided.

We Restore Brick and Mortar the Way It Should Last

Massey Tuckpointing & Masonry has been serving Des Peres and the Greater St. Louis area since 2002. Founded by a military veteran who turned his passion for quality craftsmanship into a family business, we’ve grown from a small operation into a trusted name for residential and commercial masonry work.

Three years ago, Austin Massey took over as CEO, with his brother Alex managing every project. We specialize in tuckpointing, chimney repair, driveway sealing, and weatherproofing. Each job combines proper mortar mixing, joint preparation, and surface sealing to protect your investment for decades.

As a family-owned business, we show up on time, stand behind every repair, and treat your property with the same care we’d give our own home.

Step 02

Fresh mortar is applied, joints are tooled to match, and surfaces are sealed for long-term protection.

See How Brick Restoration Transformed These Properties

We had mortar crumbling out of our chimney and water stains spreading inside after every storm. Austin and his crew ground out the old joints, repointed the entire structure, and sealed the crown. Two winters later and zero leaks. The work has held up perfectly and the chimney looks brand new again.

Linh Dinh

Our brick porch had cracks running through three steps and the mortar was soft enough to scrape with a finger. They replaced the damaged brick, tuckpointed every joint, and applied a waterproof sealer. The difference is dramatic and the porch finally feels solid and safe.
