Services
Tuckpointing
Tuckpointing restores deteriorated mortar joints in brickwork, preventing water damage and structural issues. Our experts use precise mortar analysis to match existing colors and compositions, ensuring seamless repairs. This service extends the lifespan of historic and modern masonry structures while maintaining aesthetic integrity.
Chimney Repair
Chimney repair addresses cracks, damaged crowns, and deteriorated liners to ensure safe operation. We perform partial rebuilds, flashing repairs, and complete chimney reconstructions using materials that match original construction. Our work prevents water intrusion and maintains proper ventilation for residential and commercial properties.
Brick Restoration
Brick restoration revitalizes aging facades through techniques like brick cleaning, spalling repair, and structural reinforcement. We source reclaimed bricks when needed and employ traditional methods to preserve historical accuracy. This service enhances property value while addressing safety concerns in both residential and commercial buildings.
Roofing Services
Our roofing services include repairs, replacements, and maintenance for residential and commercial properties. We specialize in parapet wall rebuilds, attic insulation, and sloped/flat roofing systems. Using durable materials and proper installation techniques, we ensure long-lasting protection against Chicago's weather conditions.
Waterproofing
Waterproofing protects brickwork using professional silicone sealants that repel moisture while allowing vapor escape. We apply PWS-15 sealant to prevent water damage, mold growth, and freeze-thaw cycles. This service extends masonry lifespan and maintains structural integrity for both historic and modern buildings.
