Brick and masonry repair in the Museum District
The Museum District mixes early 20th-century homes and garage apartments with newer townhomes and small buildings. Much of the older masonry has original brick and lime-era mortar.
We repoint worn joints with mortar matched to the original, replace broken and spalled brick, restore chimneys, and replace rusted lintels over windows and doors.

The Museum District notes
What to know before a masonry project in the Museum District
Older brick needs matching
Replacement brick and mortar should match the original in color and texture. We match mortar on site and source matching brick.
Approvals for visible changes
Some blocks are in historic districts or have deed restrictions. Matching repairs are usually simplest.
Access and parking
Streets here are busy. We plan deliveries and staging so the job doesn’t block neighbors.

Questions
The Museum District questions
Do you work on townhomes and small buildings?
Yes. We repair brick on houses, townhomes, garage apartments, and small commercial buildings.
My brick is flaking on the face. What causes that?
That’s spalling, usually water freezing or salts in the brick. We replace the damaged brick and fix the water source so it doesn’t spread.
