Brickwork Repair
Our brickwork specialists restore structural integrity while preserving aesthetic value through precise mortar matching and brick replacement. We address spalling, cracking, and water damage using traditional techniques combined with modern materials. Serving residential, commercial, and historic properties, our team ensures seamless integration with existing structures while preventing future deterioration.
Critical Inspections
We conduct comprehensive building envelope assessments meeting Chicago Department of Buildings requirements for structures over seven stories. Our inspections identify mortar deterioration, lintel corrosion, and waterproofing issues through detailed visual analysis and documentation. Clients receive photo-illustrated reports with prioritized repair recommendations and cost estimates for necessary remediation work.
Concrete Restoration
Our concrete restoration services address spalling, cracking, and deterioration in commercial and residential properties. Using advanced repair techniques, we reinforce structural elements like balconies and facades while maintaining aesthetic consistency. Projects include surface preparation, reinforcement, and protective coating applications to extend service life and prevent water intrusion.
Lintel Replacement
We replace corroded steel lintels above windows and doors to prevent structural failure and water infiltration. Our process includes proper flashing installation and mortar matching to maintain building integrity. All replacements use high-quality materials with warranties covering both materials and workmanship for client protection.
Power Washing
Our environmentally responsible cleaning services restore masonry appearance using pressure washing and chemical treatments. We remove carbon buildup, paint overspray, and weathering stains while preserving surface integrity. The process prepares surfaces for waterproofing treatments and extends the life of building exteriors through regular maintenance programs.
