"We had a massive job done by Fix My Brick. This is our second time using them, and I was beyond impressed. First off, they are the most competitive and were willing to beat my other quotes (in fact they came in lower than 2 of the quotes). They did amazing work, and were very clean and thorough. They even went so far as to re-mulch our garden where they’d been working, and made sure everything was impeccable. They were on time everyday and had great communication throughout. When you’re forking out close to $40k, you wanna make sure the job is done right - and it sure was! I would highly recommend Fix My Brick and am so pleased with the work they’ve done."
Common Brick Problems We Fix
Not all brick damage is the same. Some issues are cosmetic, others threaten your home's structure. Here's how to identify what you're dealing with:
Cracked Bricks
Cracks wider than 1/8 inch or growing progressively indicate foundation movement or structural settling. These require professional assessment to prevent major damage.
What to do: Schedule inspection - may worsen rapidly
Spalling Brick (Chipping Faces)
When brick faces chip and flake off, water has penetrated and frozen inside. Ontario's freeze-thaw cycles make this our most common repair.
What to do: Repair quickly - spreads to adjacent bricks
Loose Bricks
Bricks that move when touched or have already fallen pose immediate safety risks. We provide same-day emergency response for these situations.
What to do: Emergency - call immediately
Heritage Building Deterioration
Century homes require lime-based mortars and traditional techniques. Modern Portland cement can actually damage soft historic bricks.
What to do: Requires specialized expertise
Stair-Step Cracks
Horizontal or stair-step patterns following mortar joints indicate foundation settlement. Professional evaluation determines if it's active movement.
What to do: Professional assessment needed
Water Infiltration
Moisture behind brickwork causes hidden structural damage, mold growth, and accelerated deterioration. Early intervention prevents costly repairs.
What to do: Address promptly - damage compounds
The wrong repair approach can make damage worse. We identify root causes and use compatible materials that protect your masonry for decades. That's why customers say our repairs are "invisible" and "perfect."

My initial contact was with Ryan . The team came to the house did the work and when they left I noticed the mortar was a little darker than it should be and I was told it would dry to the natural colour. Unfortunately it did not get any lighter after a 6 month period. I called Ryan and explained the situation, he came by and met with me and agreed fully and guaranteed me that he would fix the problem. Ryan came back with the team and not only fixed the issues but used that time as a training"

Professional Brick Repair Process
Our systematic approach ensures lasting results through comprehensive assessment and quality implementation
Thorough Assessment
We examine the entire wall structure, not just visible damage. Our assessment identifies whether you have cosmetic issues or structural problems that need immediate attention.
Perfect Material Matching
Customers consistently praise our "perfect match" results. We source exact brick matches and custom-blend mortar to make repairs invisible.
Professional Installation
Our experienced crews carefully remove damaged bricks, prepare surfaces properly, and install replacements with precision. The work blends seamlessly.
Meticulous Cleanup
We're known for leaving properties "cleaner than we found them." Daily cleanup, protected landscaping, and complete debris removal are standard.

Before completing, we inspect every detail. Photos document the work, and we ensure you're completely satisfied with the results.
Long-Term Support
We provide maintenance guidance and stand behind our work with warranties. Our goal is repairs that last decades, not quick fixes.
Brick Repair: What Affects Cost
- Extent of damage and whether bricks need replacement vs. repointing
- Mortar color/texture matching and heritage brick sourcing
- Access and height (scaffolding, roof protection, safety setup)
- Underlying moisture issues that require waterproofing fixes
- Window/door lintels or structural elements affected
- Season and curing conditions (winter protection, heat, rain)
- Project size and number of locations on the home
- Clean-up requirements and restoration of adjacent finishes
- Heritage compliance or municipality permit needs
- Material availability for hard-to-match brick styles
- Site constraints (parking, access, protection plans)
Typical Project Profiles
Basic Repair
Localized crack repair or small areas of repointing with standard mortar matching. Simple access, minimal protection, quick turnaround.
Moderate Restoration
Multiple areas, brick replacement, precise color/texture match, and limited scaffolding. Often includes moisture mitigation and flashing touch‑ups.
Extensive Restoration
Structural concerns, lintel remediation, large elevation work, heritage brick sourcing, and comprehensive protection. May require permits/engineering.
What Your Quote Includes

- Exact mortar/brick matching plan (heritage when required)
- Site protection, debris removal, and daily/final cleanup
- Workmanship coverage and care guidance for long‑term performance

Ways To Keep Costs Down

- Address gutter/downspout/drainage issues during the repair
- Provide clear access and parking for crews and materials
- Flexible scheduling can help avoid weather premiums
