We’ve been repairing bricks in Houston, Texas for decades. Not only can we handle masonry repairs of all types, we also examine the root cause of the damage. After all, if your bricks are damaged due to poor soil conditions, if the soil conditions are not addressed, you’ll need our services once again in a few years. While we appreciate repeat customers, we do the job right. As a full service contractor, Houston Brick Repair can handle the brickwork as well as the structural repairs that may need to take place to address the cause of the damage.
What typically causes brickwork and masonry to need to be repaired? A number of factors can contribute to the condition of your bricks including:
• Soil settling and foundation problems
• Water damage
• Poor original masonry work
• Poor original mortar mixes
• Earthquakes
• Collisions
• Pollution
• Erosion and exposure to the elements
• Remodeling projects
• Age
Depending on the nature of the brick repair, additional measures may be needed to ensure a pleasing esthetic. For example, if the brick repair must blend in with existing, undamaged brickwork, you’ll need a brick repair company in Houston that specializes in “invisible” brick repairs. A variety of techniques are used to create a seamless repair including mortar matching and brick coloring. If the original brickwork incorporated a special pattern, Houston Brick Repair’s masons can match the pattern as well.
In addition to brick repair, it’s not unusual for bricks to need cleaning and restoration work. For example, the accumulation of soot on downtown buildings may add character to an older building. However, having the bricks cleaned properly can restore the building to its previous beauty. The same is true of a sooty fireplace.
Repairing bricks in Houston often requires custom mortar mixes, especially if the building is of historical significance. We’ve
repaired damaged brick on projects of all types including historic brick, new construction, remodels, older homes, newer homes, and commercial buildings.
Whether you have a brick wall that has been damaged from an automobile collision or a brick home suffering from cracks and missing mortar, if you live in Houston, a quality brick repair is just a phone call away! Call Houston Brick Repair today and enjoy the beauty of your brickwork once again.
