Masonry Anchor

Masonry anchors are critical hardware components that secure everything from brick veneer to structural connections, playing a vital but often hidden role in your building's safety and stability. In Ontario construction, these include brick ties connecting veneer to framing, anchor bolts securing sill plates, and specialized fasteners for attaching fixtures to masonry. Corroded or failed anchors cause serious problems—loose brick veneer can detach in high winds, while failed structural anchors compromise building integrity. Modern stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized anchors resist corrosion better than older plain steel versions that often fail after 20-30 years. Retrofit anchors can stabilize bowing walls, reattach separated wythes, or secure loose architectural elements without major reconstruction. Fix My Brick inspects anchor conditions during assessments and installs appropriate replacement anchors to restore structural connections. Proper anchor installation and maintenance prevents catastrophic failures that risk safety and require expensive emergency repairs.
