Building a Sister Wall and Tuckpointing required too!
Tuckpointing restores the mortar that is cracked, crumbling or missing. The sister wall that will be built stabilizes this stone wall that has been affected by external pressure. Stone Construction was popular in the early portions of the 20th century, it was generally replaced by cinderblock, or block wall construction until the late 1960s when poured concrete foundation walls became more standard. In the late 1970s, reinforced concrete foundations consumned the market.
