Chimney/Fireplace Repairs
A defective masonry chimney/fireplace is a common cause of house fires across the U.S. Unfortunately, unlike other leading causes of house fires, a chimney/fireplace can be difficult to detect. To ensure maximum safety, get in contact so we can inspect your chimney/fireplace and determine if it requires any repairs.
Parapet Repairs
A parapet is a small wall or guard rail that is located along the top of a roof, terrace, or balcony. It is primarily constructed to protect people from falling off the edge. A crumbling or rickety parapet can be extremely dangerous and result in death.
Brick Window Sill Repairs
Window sills are often susceptible to deterioration due to the freeze-thaw cycle. This cycle, which can cause masonry window sills to spall and crack, occurs when temperatures fluctuate between above freezing and below 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
Repairs to Brick Porches, Stairs, Walks, and Walls
Accidents, extreme weather, excess moisture, and normal wear and tear can cause damage to brick porches, stairs, walks, and walls. While this damage can be simply attractive, it can also create unsafe conditions that require masonry repair.
Tuckpointing
This technique, which prevents moisture from seeping into a chimney system, entails repairing, or replacing, damaged mortar joints between bricks. A mason uses new mortar that is comparable in color to the existing material to make them appear monolithic.
Repointing
When it comes to repointing, think of the timeless saying, “Out with the old, in with the new.” This common masonry process consists of removing old mortar and replacing it with new mortar when bricks or stones become damaged or begin to decay.
Waterproofing
Excessive moisture can wreak havoc on masonry work. Thus, waterproofing is a critical process that involves making materials waterproof, or water-resistant, so that they remain relatively unaffected by moisture and extreme weather conditions.
What is masonry repair?
Masonry involves erecting structures from individual units of materials, such as concrete, marble, stone, brick, granite, and limestone, which are laid in and bonded together with mortar. Generally, this construction method is employed to construct foundations, walls, columns, and various structural components of buildings. Meanwhile, masonry repair consists of fixing, and sometimes removing and replacing, these materials if they’ve become old, damaged, or broken.
When is masonry repair needed?
Masonry is a time-tested, and exceptionally durable, construction technique. Nevertheless, accidents, extreme weather, excess moisture, and normal wear and tear can cause serious structural problems that require masonry repair. Contact us so we can assess the state of your masonry and determine if its structural integrity has been compromised.
