Experience is everything when repointing and repairing brickwork. It takes years of practice to know exactly where to remove grout and how to replace it effectively. A lackluster job today might lead to high brickwork repair costs in the future. Harder still, is accurately matching the color of the original brickwork.

The brick repointing experts at Cornerstone Restoration remove damaged grout, clean out the work space, color match the existing brickwork, and masterfully repoint the surface to ensure a perfect fix.

Lintels are load bearing beams which ease stress on the masonry by straddling the top of a window or doorframe. Exposed to the elements, brickwork above openings tend to collect moisture, which can cause the lintel to expand, cracking the mortar.

Caulking or otherwise sealing this brickwork actually does more harm than good as it prevents moisture from leaving the bricks, accelerating the oxidization process.

Lintels can actually be a quick fix depending on the damage. Simply installing steel bars into the existing grout often eases stress on the brickwork. However, if there is enough damage, the only solution is to replace the lintel entirely, removing the existing brickwork and replacing it.

Lintels should only be repaired by experienced individuals like the specialists at Cornerstone Restoration.

Having an experienced repair team come in is usually the best solution. The stucco repair experts at Cornerstone Restoration will ensure your building’s exterior lasts as long as it was meant to.

Limestone is a preferred building material in older structures, favored for its strength and resilience. Just because it’s resilient doesn’t mean it’s immune to chips and cracks.

Similarly, we repair damaged granite and marble, ensuring a perfect fix.

We also provide sealer and sealant installation services to prevent water or moisture from getting into the building envelope. Our masonry restoration specialists carefully install sealant to ensure the structural integrity of your building is maintained for years to come.
