Masonry Repair
Brick repointing and restoration that protects structural integrity.
Expert brick repointing and masonry restoration that protects structural integrity and extends the life of your property.
Mortar is the sacrificial element of a masonry wall — it's designed to weather and fail so the brick doesn't. When mortar erodes, moisture enters the wall and the structure weakens. Our masonry repair service repoints, rebuilds, and stabilizes brick and stone masonry to protect integrity and extend service life.
We match mortar composition to the original (critical for historic buildings), repoint joints to the correct depth and profile, replace damaged units, and stabilize cracks. The result is a wall that sheds water, carries load, and looks like it should — repaired, not patched.
Brick Repointing
Deteriorated mortar is raked out to sound depth and replaced with mortar matched in composition, color, and hardness to the original. Proper repointing restores weather resistance without trapping moisture or damaging surrounding brick.
Mortar & Unit Replacement
Spalled, cracked, or missing units are replaced with matching brick or stone. We blend repairs with the existing wall so additions read as part of the original assembly, not as obvious patches.
Crack Stabilization
Masonry cracks are diagnosed for cause — settlement, thermal movement, or structural stress — then stabilized with appropriate methods: stitching, repointing, or movement joints to prevent recurrence.
