AKRON TUCKPOINTING
Old-School Craftsmanship. Modern Techniques. Results That Last.
Big Jobs, Small Jobs, Same Pride in Every Brick.
Hi, I’m Shawn, owner of Akron TuckPointing. I’ve been working in the skilled trades since I was 19 and started my union masonry career in Chicago back in 1997.
Masonry isn’t just what I do for a living. It’s something I’ve spent most of my life perfecting, and I genuinely love what I do.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work on some pretty impressive projects, including Harpo Studios, where Oprah Winfrey filmed her show, Buffalo Wild Wings, Woodfield Mall, award-recognized commercial work in downtown Chicago, and luxury resorts throughout the Midwest.
More recently, I’ve been involved in historic restoration projects in downtown Barberton, including Magic City Comics and Mancan, helping bring century-old brick buildings back to life while preserving their original character.
But here’s something I want every potential customer to understand:
Just because I’ve worked on major commercial projects doesn’t mean I’m too busy or too important to repair a few loose bricks on your front steps.
Actually, some of my favorite projects are the smaller ones.
Whether it’s fixing a deteriorating chimney, replacing a handful of damaged bricks, repairing cracked mortar joints, or restoring an entire historic building, I approach every job with the same attention to detail.
WHAT MAKES MY WORK DIFFERENT?
I specialize in making masonry repairs look like they belong there.
One of my strongest skills is matching existing mortar colors, textures, and finishes. I combine traditional masonry techniques with modern materials and methods when appropriate to create repairs that are both beautiful and built to last.
My goal is simple: When I’m finished, I want you to have a hard time figuring out where the old masonry ends and my work begins.
I also believe in giving customers options.
Sometimes a small repair is all that’s needed. Other times, there’s an underlying issue that needs attention before it becomes a much bigger and more expensive problem.
I’ll explain what I find, walk you through your options, and help you make an informed decision.
I’m not interested in selling you work you don’t need. I’m interested in doing the work you actually need—and doing it right.
WHEN YOU HIRE ME, YOU GET ME.
I’m personally involved in my projects because I take pride in knowing exactly how the work is being performed.
I enjoy the challenges, the problem-solving, and especially the custom work that allows me to put a little creativity into what I do.
But what I enjoy most is stepping back at the end of a project, looking at the finished product, and seeing the customer’s reaction.
That’s what makes the work worthwhile.
I’ve also donated my time and skills over the years to help people who couldn’t afford masonry repairs. I believe craftsmanship means more when you can use it to make a difference in someone’s life.
NO JOB TOO SMALL TO DESERVE QUALITY. NO PROJECT TOO CHALLENGING TO DESERVE EXPERIENCE.
Whether you need a few bricks replaced, a chimney repaired, a fireplace restored, or a complete masonry restoration, I’d appreciate the opportunity to earn your business.
You don’t need to have a mansion or a major commercial project to deserve exceptional craftsmanship.
You just need someone who cares enough to do it right.
At Akron TuckPointing, I treat every project like it’s going to have my signature on it—because in a way, it does.
