Restoring Masonry and Brick in Burlington

Toronto has long been the bread basket for most trades in Southern Ontario. This is of course due to the population size as well as the plethora of old homes that have been victim to the harsh Canadian winters for so long, leading to massive amounts of deterioration to the masonry and brick. In 1977, when Wilkens Masonry first started, the suburban zones of Mississauga, Oakville and Burlington were much less populated and the homes were newer. This means that most companies wouldn’t have been able to establish themselves exclusively in these towns. Many homes in Burlington are now entering the stage of needing some upkeep as well as some larger restorative projects.

What Do Homes In Burlington Need?

Most of the time, the work we are performing in Burlington is isolated to basic brick replacement and repointing in the areas where the exterior walls are close to grade and find themselves exposed to salt, snow and rain. Also, many chimneys have seen 40-50 years of ice and snow and are now in need of repointing and, in many cases, a full rebuild. Deterioration generally happens over a long period of time, but reaches a point where it can exponentially increase. Fifty years of slight erosion on some brick surfaces can expose more surface area to ice and jump into a problem over a single winter.
