Our Methods

Structural preservation.

Tuckpointing & Mortar Matching

Failing mortar joints invite water. We rake out deteriorated joints and replace them with custom-blended lime mortars that match the strength, porosity, and color of your historic brick.

Structural Brick & Crown Repair

Crumbling crowns and spalling bricks compromise your home's envelope. We rebuild structural concrete crowns and replace damaged brick, finishing with a breathable waterproofing barrier.
