Repointing brick on a Ocean Ridge chimney

ZIP 33435 lots near the Ocean Avenue area and the Boynton Inlet do not share a method with the oceanfront strip along A1A. Housing here is mid-century and later single-family oceanfront and Intracoastal homes on the barrier island, masonry block construction with stucco-clad or masonry chimneys.
Tuckpointing here is joint removal and replacement on sound brick or block around the Ocean Avenue area. After the Ocean Avenue area visit, the written scope lists the failed part on that lot, the materials, and what is excluded.

The proposal still names the part at that address. Receded mortar is not automatically a rebuild. Learn more about chimney tuckpointing. Unsound masonry uses Ocean Ridge chimney rebuild.
