Benefits of Professional Brick Repair
Preserve Character
Maintain the historic character and architectural integrity of your brick buildings and structures.
Prevent Damage

Common Brick Repair Problems
Recognizing these issues early can save you from costly repairs down the road.
Spalling Brick from Freeze-Thaw Cycles
London's harsh winters cause water to freeze and expand in brick pores, leading to surface spalling and structural damage that requires professional brick replacement.
Deteriorating Mortar Joints
Ontario's weather extremes break down mortar over time, allowing water infiltration that can damage both bricks and interior structures.
Efflorescence on London Yellow Brick
White mineral deposits commonly appear on London's historic yellow brick buildings, indicating moisture problems that need immediate attention.

Old South London and other heritage areas require specific materials and techniques that only experienced local masons can properly execute.

Do I need permits for brick repair in London, Ontario?

How long do brick repairs last in Ontario's climate?

What's the difference between repointing and tuckpointing?
Repointing removes old mortar and replaces it with new mortar. Tuckpointing is a decorative technique using two colors of mortar to create the appearance of fine joints. Both improve structural integrity and are commonly used in London's heritage buildings.
When is the best time for brick repair in London, Ontario?
Spring through fall (April-October) is ideal for brick repair in London. We avoid winter work when possible due to freezing temperatures affecting mortar curing, though emergency repairs can be done year-round with proper precautions.
