Brick Wall Repairs and Repointing
Over time, brick walls can crack or wear down from weather, age, or settling. Our expert masons specialize in repairing and repointing brickwork by refreshing the mortar to strengthen and improve how your walls look. This not only stops damage from getting worse but also helps keep your home’s character. Whether it’s a small crack or bigger issues, we’ll carefully restore your brick walls to last.
Cinder Block Foundation Repairs
Cinder block foundations are common in many Boston homes thanks to their durability and cost-effectiveness. However, like any foundation, they can develop issues over time such as bowing walls, moisture intrusion, or cracking. Our team conducts thorough inspections to determine the extent of the damage and selects the most effective repair method for your situation. From structural reinforcement to waterproof sealing, we ensure your foundation is safe, secure, and built to last.


Brick Sealing with Waterproofing Sealant
Brick might look tough, but it’s actually pretty porous, which means it can soak up water over time, especially with all the freeze-thaw cycles we get here in Boston. That moisture can lead to damage, mold, and crumbling mortar if it’s not taken care of. Our brick sealing service adds a protective, high-quality waterproof layer that keeps the water out without changing the look of your brick. It’s a simple way to protect your masonry and help keep your home dry, solid, and safe for years to come.
Chimney Repair Services
A damaged chimney isn’t just an eyesore; it can be risky too. Cracks, loose bricks, or a leaning chimney can weaken your home and even raise the chance of a fire. We handle everything from small repairs to full rebuilds. We’ll take a close look, repair what needs fixing, and makes sure your chimney safely vents smoke while staying strong for years to come.
