Our Masonry Services

Brick & Stone Repair

  • Brick Repair Toronto: Replace spalled, cracked or loose bricks on exterior walls, façades, and chimneys. We match mortar color and texture to blend repairs seamlessly.
  • Stone Veneer Installation GTA: Apply natural or manufactured stone veneers to accent walls, fireplaces and exterior facades—enhancing property value and curb appeal. 
  • Chimney Repair & Rebuild Toronto: Inspect and rebuild chimney crowns, flue liners, and brick stacks to meet Ontario Chimney Code. Prevent leaks and improve draft efficiency. 
  • Concrete Block Restoration: Repair or replace cracked CMU block walls, footings and cinder-block foundations in older Toronto homes.

Tuckpointing & Repointing

  • Tuckpointing GTA: Remove damaged mortar to a consistent depth, then apply new joint mortar that matches historic profiles—preserving aesthetic and preventing water ingress. 
  • Repointing Toronto: Freshen up mortar joints on brick walls, stone veneers, and retaining walls. Our proprietary water-resistant mortar blend resists freeze-thaw damage. 
  • Historic Masonry Restoration: We adhere to heritage guidelines when working on older Toronto and Mississauga buildings—using lime-based mortars and authentic brick profiles.

Structural & Waterproofing

  • Basement Wall Crack Repair Toronto: Inject cracks with epoxy or polyurethane resins to stop water seepage and restore structural integrity.
