When the mortar between your bricks gets soft, cracked, or starts falling out, water gets behind the wall. Repointing grinds out the bad joints and repacks them so the wall sheds water again.
Old brick is soft; modern Portland mortar is hard. Repointing soft historic brick with too-hard mortar traps moisture and cracks the brick faces. A proper job matches the mortar's strength and color to what's already there, so the repair protects the wall instead of damaging it.
