What we do

It's cheaper to fix it before it falls. All brick or stone structures can be repaired — here is what each service means, what it fixes, and what it keeps from happening later.

Gas Fireplace Inspection & Tune-Up

November & December Special

A 25- to 35-minute check of your gas fireplace — burner, logs, venting, pilot, glass and carbon monoxide risks — plus a tune-up so it burns clean and safe all season.

It fixes

  • A weak, yellow or lifting flame
  • Soot building up on the glass and logs
  • A pilot that won't stay lit
  • Blocked or corroded venting
  • Burners that click or won't ignite

It prevents

  • Carbon monoxide seeping into your home
  • A fire starting inside the appliance
  • A breakdown in the coldest week of winter
  • A small fault turning into a costly repair

Special: $100 to book · $100 on the day of service (first 100 people, reg. $250)

Fresh tuckpointing on a brick home wall with new mortar joints

Tuckpointing & Mortar Repair

Cracked and crumbling mortar is ground out of the joints and fresh, color-matched mortar is packed in, so the wall sheds water and stays solid.

It fixes

  • Gaps, cracks and holes in the mortar joints
  • Mortar that is soft or powdery to the touch
  • Joints that have washed out from rain
  • Brick that has started to loosen

It prevents

  • Water working its way behind the wall
  • Damp patches on indoor walls and ceilings
  • Freeze-thaw cracking through winter
  • Brick losing its support and moving

Brick & Stone Replacement

Spalled, cracked or missing brick or stone is cut out and replaced with matched material, so the repair blends into the wall instead of standing out.

It fixes

  • Cracked, spalled or missing brick and stone
  • Holes left by old vents, pipes and fixtures
  • Patched-over damage that never matched
  • Sunken or bulging sections of wall

It prevents

  • The edges of a hole crumbling further
  • Water collecting inside the wall
  • Pests getting in through an opening
  • A weak spot spreading into the rest of the wall

Chimney Repair & Repointing

Loose bricks, failing mortar joints and leaky chimney crowns are fixed before water works its way inside your home.

It fixes

  • Loose or bulging bricks in the stack
  • A cracked or crumbling chimney crown
  • Open mortar joints along the flue
  • Deteriorated flashing at the roofline

It prevents

  • Leaks into the attic and ceilings
  • Smoke and drafts backing up into rooms
  • A rusted-out damper
  • Winter freeze-thaw widening small cracks

Chimney Rebuilds

Leaning or badly damaged chimneys are rebuilt from the roofline up, with new flashing where the chimney meets the roof.

It fixes

  • A chimney that has started to lean
  • Brickwork too far gone for repointing
  • Failed flashing that lets water in
  • A missing or broken crown and cap

It prevents

  • A partial collapse of the stack
  • Chronic roof leaks around the chimney
  • Vermin getting in through gaps
  • Damage reaching the framing of your home

Waterproofing & Caulking

Breathable masonry sealants and fresh caulking around windows, doors and chimneys keep water out of your brick without trapping moisture inside it.

It fixes

  • Porous mortar that drinks in rain
  • Open gaps and hairline cracks
  • Failed, shrunken old caulk
  • Unsealed joints at the roofline and sills

It prevents

  • Water soaking into the brick
  • Spalling and dusting of the surface
  • Ice damage at the start of winter
  • Draughts pulling through the gaps
