Fresh mortar pointing and breathable brick sealers keep moisture out of Fraser Valley masonry and add years of life.
Brick Pointing & Sealing in Chilliwack — What We Do
Brick pointing and sealing in Chilliwack, BC — mortar repointing followed by a penetrating sealer is one of the most cost-effective things you can do to protect masonry in the Fraser Valley's wet climate. Fresh pointing closes the gaps that let water in. A breathable sealer keeps moisture from absorbing into the brick face. Together, they add years of life to any brick or stone structure. We always repoint first and seal second — sealing over failing mortar just traps moisture and makes things worse.
What's Included
- Mortar joint inspection and assessment
- Full-wall or targeted repointing

When to Call a Masonry Contractor
New Masonry After Curing
New brick and stonework benefits from a sealer application 6–12 months after installation once the mortar has fully cured.
Before a Wet Winter
Getting mortar pointed and sealed before the Fraser Valley's wet season is the smartest time to do it.
After Chimney or Wall Repairs
We always recommend sealing freshly repointed masonry to protect the new mortar from early water infiltration.
Our Brick Pointing & Sealing Process
Inspection
We assess the condition of the mortar joints and brick faces. Any deteriorated joints are marked for repointing before sealing.
Repointing (if needed)
Deteriorated joints are opened and repointed. No point sealing over bad mortar.
Cleaning
The surface is cleaned with a mild brick cleaner to remove efflorescence, dirt, and biological growth.
Sealer Application
We apply a penetrating, breathable sealer — not a surface film. Breathable sealers allow moisture vapor to escape while blocking liquid water entry.
Why Choose Chilliwack Masonry Works?
- Breathable sealers only — surface film sealers trap moisture and cause more damage
- We repoint first before sealing — always in the right order
- Commercial-grade sealer products
