Our brick restauration service
We start by inspecting all parts of your walls, and then we determine the locations that need repair or repointing. We can, if needed, dismantle a part of the wall in order to do the repair in a solid and resistant manner. Brick restoration allows to solidify the entirety of the wall thanks to the replacement of broken bricks and quality repointing.
It often happens that the bricks that find themselves near the edge of the doors and windows become weakened, since the brick wall puts constant pressure on the lintels (stone supports that
If needed, we will replace the cracked sills or lintels, and properly seal their outline. We can also replace the rusty angle irons, these metal bars that support the weight of the wall above the doors.

Brick restoration and isolation
The restoration of brick or stone walls is a very delicate job. One must do the replacement of bricks or stones damaged by usage, rain and temperature variations, and this often by spot. You must also think about adding or replacing the insulation when restoring the bricks on these walls, if dealing with old houses or buildings. For newer buildings where the waterproofing and insulation are found to be less effective, the restoration of the bricks or stones would automatically increase their performance.
