Services
Tuckpointing
Our tuckpointing service carefully removes deteriorated mortar joints and replaces them with custom-blended mortar that matches original colors or client preferences. This process restores structural integrity while preserving historic aesthetics. Clients receive lasting, visually seamless results that protect buildings for decades.
Chimney Rebuilding
We specialize in complete chimney restoration, including brick/stone replacement, liner installation, cap construction, and crown repairs. Our team matches original materials precisely while reinforcing structural stability. This service extends chimney lifespan and prevents weather-related damage for both historic and modern properties.
Lintel Replacement
This service addresses corroded steel window and door lintels that cause masonry displacement. We replace damaged angle irons and realign shifted structures to restore wall integrity. Proper lintel function prevents costly wall damage and maintains building safety standards.
Masonry Repairs
Our masonry work covers brick, stone, and concrete repairs for exterior walls, glass block installations, and veneer stone applications. We match materials precisely while reinforcing structural elements. This service preserves architectural character and prevents moisture intrusion that leads to deterioration.
Caulking Services
We replace cracked sealants around expansion joints and windows while creating new waterproof barriers. Our technique uses high-quality materials that expand/contract with temperature changes. This prevents water infiltration that damages building exteriors and interior structures.
