Price

What drives the cost of tuckpointing in Allen Park

  • Wall area and how many joints need repointing
  • Height and access: ladder, lift or scaffolding
  • Joint width and profile to match
  • Mortar matching on historic or soft brick
  • Brick replacement found during work
  • Chimney and parapet work on the roof
  • The age of the home: the typical Allen Park home was built around 1955, so older materials, lead-safe rules and hidden damage can add time

Before you hire in Allen Park

Lead-safe work rules apply to most homes

The typical home in Allen Park was built around 1955. Painting, window, siding and remodeling work that disturbs paint in homes built before 1978 must follow the EPA lead-safe (RRP) rule. Ask any contractor for their RRP certification before work starts.

Older plumbing and sewer lines

77% of homes here were built before 1960, when cast iron drains, clay sewer laterals and galvanized supply pipe were standard. A sewer camera inspection before buying or remodeling is cheap insurance.

Permits: check with the Allen Park building department before work starts.
