Waterproofing
It’s important to waterproof concrete structures to keep moisture out of the facility and to protect the structural components of concrete and imbedded reinforcing steel. If the integrity of the concrete is maintained, it can remain waterproof. Polyurethane is considered one of the best waterproofing materials. It can be applied seamlessly and penetrates the surface deeply and evenly. The polyurethane membrane will fill in even the finest cracks in concrete, reducing its water absorbency capacity. Many types of waterproofing systems can be used depending on your home’s structure
Urethane Foam or Epoxy Injection
Urethane Foam or epoxy injection is a cost-effective and permanent way to stabilize and seal cracked or compromised masonry surfaces. Depending on the size of the crack, urethane foam or epoxy is injected into the void and allowed to cure. Once hardened, these materials help form a stable subsurface to support masonry restoration operations.
Tuck Pointing
Tuck pointing entails removing loose or cracked mortar from brickwork or stone installations and replacing its new mortar to ensure structural integrity and to seal out damaging water and moisture. Mortar for tuck pointing must be carefully selected to ensure that its color and texture of the new mortar closely matches the existing material that was not compromised and did not need to be removed.
Masonry Cleaning
Masonry cleaning entails the removal of dirt, debris, paint, and graffiti from various surfaces of masonry structures. Commonly used masonry cleaning techniques include high and low – pressure washing and chemical cleaning. Regardless of the method used, special care is taken to avoid over cleaning – and possibly damaging – aging masonry surfaces.
Grouting
Grouting is used to seal the spaces between masonry installations such as tile or terra cotta. Grout may be colored to blend with the masonry materials, or can be used to create contrast within the masonry design. Grout is typically applied by hand by filling the joints with material and then troweling it out over the adjoining tile or terra cotta. Once the grout has set, a craftsman returns to the area that was grouted and removes any excess material from the face of the installation. As grout is frequently porous, it must be sealed once it is completely dry to protect it from dirt infiltration.
EIFS Cleaning
Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems cleaning, also known as EIFS cleaning, involves removing dirt and grime from the exterior surfaces of structures clad in Dryvit or other types of stucco–like materials. To avoid damaging the thin exterior skin of these structures, mild cleaning agents and low–pressure water is most frequently used to dislodge surface dirt. Manual cleaning is also used to remove dirt in hard–to–reach areas or intricate detail.
Caulking
Caulking is used to seal gaps between masonry surfaces, such as brick or stone, and other architectural elements, including window and door frames, decorative hardware or lighting fixtures. Caulking is most often applied with a gun, and is available in butyl, latex or customized formulations. The color of caulk is selected to match the surfaces surrounding the application site. When applied, the caulking gun is inserted in the gap to be filled. Caulking material is then injected into the void to seal the opening.
Abrasive Cleaning
Heavily soiled masonry surfaces may require abrasive cleaning to effectively remove deposits of grime, paint or graffiti. Abrasive cleaning typically involves high–pressure application of sand or another type of inert, abrasive material directly to the masonry surface. When the abrasive cleaning has been completed, the masonry surface is frequently rinsed with low-pressure water to remove any remaining dirt or cleaning materials.
Why New York Masonry Restoration Matters
In New York, masonry takes a beating from weather, pollution, building movement, and decades of wear. Small issues like failing mortar or hairline cracks can quickly turn into spalling brick, loose stone, interior leaks, and larger structural concerns.
Restoration isn’t just about appearance—it’s about protecting a major asset.
New York Masonry Restoration helps you:
-
Prevent moisture from getting behind the wall system
-
Extend the life of your brick and stone
-
Restore curb appeal and property value
-
Reduce future repair costs through proactive maintenance
-
Improve overall safety and facade performance
Common Masonry Problems We Repair in New York
If your building is showing any of these signs, it may be time to schedule masonry restoration:
-
Cracked, crumbling, or missing mortar joints
-
Spalling brick (flaking, popping, or breaking faces)
-
Loose or shifting bricks and stone
-
Step cracks near windows, corners, and parapets
-
Bulging or uneven masonry sections
-
White staining (efflorescence) or water streaks
-
Rust staining from failing lintels or embedded metals
-
Previous patch repairs failing or mismatched
These issues often start small—then water finds its way in and speeds everything up.
What New York Masonry Restoration Typically Includes
Every property is different, so we start with a clear evaluation and build a plan that matches the building’s materials, age, and condition. Depending on what we find, New York Masonry Restoration may include:
Repointing / Tuckpointing
Restoring mortar joints is one of the most important parts of masonry work. Proper repointing helps prevent water intrusion and stabilizes the masonry system—while keeping the facade looking clean and consistent.
Brick Repair and Selective Replacement
When brick is spalling, cracked, or deteriorated, we repair or replace only what’s needed—so you’re not overpaying or losing the original look of the building.
Stone Restoration and Detail Repair
New York stonework is beautiful, but it requires a careful, material-appropriate approach. We restore damaged stone and architectural details while keeping the character intact.
Crack Repair and Stabilization
Not all cracks mean structural failure—but they should be assessed correctly. We identify the cause and repair it the right way, not just cosmetically.
Facade Repairs and Corrective Masonry
From targeted fixes to broader restoration needs, we correct problem areas and address the underlying issues that cause repeat damage.
Sealing and Water Intrusion Support
Where appropriate, we address transitions and joints that allow moisture in—because water is the #1 reason masonry begins to fail.
Repointing in New York: The Repair That Saves You the Most
Mortar joints are the “seal” between masonry units, and once they begin to fail, water gets behind the facade. That’s when brick starts spalling, interiors can show leak damage, and repairs become more complicated.
Quality repointing should:
-
Match the building’s mortar as closely as possible
-
Be installed cleanly and consistently
-
Protect the masonry without trapping moisture
-
Restore strength without damaging surrounding brick or stone
This is one of those areas where experience and precision matter—because the wrong mortar or poor workmanship can create bigger problems later.
