Masonry Repair Process Raynham Center

Our Proven Masonry Restoration Process

First, we conduct a thorough inspection of your chimney’s masonry. We examine every mortar joint, check for spalling bricks, and assess the overall structural condition.

Next, we carefully remove deteriorated mortar to the proper depth. This isn’t a quick patch job—we grind out damaged material and prepare the joints for new mortar that matches your existing brickwork in color, composition, and strength.

Finally, we pack fresh mortar into the joints in layers, tooling each section for a clean finish and strong bond. When we’re done, your chimney looks better and performs better than it has in years.
