Warning Signs
When Brick Repair Becomes Urgent
Brick damage doesn't fix itself. Spot these warning signs early to avoid expensive repairs later.
Spalling Brick Faces on Exposed Walls
Spalling Brick Faces on Exposed Walls
Brick faces flaking or popping off indicate trapped moisture froze and expanded. This accelerates through Ontario freeze-thaw cycles—spreading to surrounding bricks if not addressed.
Water Leaking Behind Brick Walls
Water Leaking Behind Brick Walls
Leaking around windows, sills, or parapets means water is getting behind the wall—causing interior damage, mould risk, and structural issues. Fix the source before repairing visible damage.
Cracked or Shifting Bricks
Cracked or Shifting Bricks
Cracks wider than a credit card or bricks loose under hand pressure signal foundation movement or failed support. These worsen quickly and create safety hazards.

Brick repair explained
More than just swapping a few bricks
Brick repair is the process of removing failed bricks and mortar, fixing the cause of the damage, and rebuilding so the wall is safe, dry, and visually consistent.
In Ontario, freeze–thaw cycles, poor drainage, and past cement-heavy repairs are the main culprits. Proper brick repair starts with diagnosis, uses compatible materials, and blends new work into old so the wall looks untouched.
What Brick Repair Includes:
Remove damaged units and clean joints back to sound material.
Install matched bricks with compatible mortar that can breathe.
Address water and movement issues so problems do not return.
When is Brick Repair Needed?
Spalling and flaking faces
Cracks wider than a credit card
Loose, shifting, or missing bricks
See the Transformation
Water damage and freeze-thaw cycles had caused extensive spalling. We replaced damaged bricks with matching units and repointed the surrounding joints.

How we fix damaged brick

Smaller brick repairs
We replace a handful of cracked or spalling bricks and repoint nearby joints so damage doesn't spread.

Chimney shoulders
Isolated wall patches
Larger wall repairs
When a wall is bulging, bowing, or badly cracked, we open up the area, rebuild it properly, and tie into sound brick.

Local Expertise
Brick Repair for St. Catharines and Niagara Region
St. Catharines combines lakefront heritage architecture with wine country estates, creating diverse masonry repair needs. Historic Port Dalhousie and St. Paul Street feature century homes requiring specialized restoration, while Garden City and newer areas have mid-century and modern brick facing lake-effect moisture. The Welland Canal's industrial legacy left heritage buildings throughout downtown, and proximity to Lake Ontario accelerates freeze-thaw damage. We understand Niagara's architectural character and climate-specific masonry challenges.
Heritage Conservation
Port Dalhousie and St. Paul Street heritage districts require period-appropriate restoration and lime mortar techniques.
Lake Ontario & Escarpment
Lakefront moisture combined with escarpment exposure creates intense freeze-thaw cycles that accelerate brick deterioration.
Wine Country Estates
Niagara's wine region attracts buyers investing in property upgrades, driving demand for quality brick repair and heritage restoration.
What Affects Pricing
We believe in transparent pricing without hidden fees. Because every property is unique, we provide detailed assessments rather than generic estimates.
