Masonry Repair in Gladwyne
Stone and brick have long been popular investments for construction jobs in either residential or commercial settings around Gladwyne because they are known to be the most durable materials available. Unfortunately, durable doesn’t mean invincible. Masonry can suddenly crack or crumble, and while most home and business owners may not notice it right away, the faster you get repairs done, the better.
For the most part, Gladwyne home and business owners are under the impression that when cracks start to emerge, it’s only an aesthetic issue. However, when cracks start to appear, it gives moisture an opportunity to enter the already porous substance and cause serious damage. Being proactive and getting your masonry repaired as soon as you notice any signs of damage can save you a lot of money and stress. And when you do, calling Paul McDermott Masonry INC are the people to call to make sure the masonry repairs are done right.

Repointing Services
Mortar is the glue that holds bricks or stones together. Over time and exposure to the elements, mortar will eventually crumble or fall out. Without a strong hold, your bricks are subject to crumbling or loosening. Once that starts to happen, it’s not just an eyesore, it could cause structural issues. Luckily, Paul McDermott Masonry INC has the ability to replace the mortar through repointing.
When your building’s mortar has started to wear down or there are large chunks of it missing altogether, our skilled masons will chisel out what’s left of the existing mortar. Then, once the old mortar has been removed, we will add a new mixture of mortar to reinforce the brick or stone.
When done poorly, mortar can spread all over the brick or stone, detracting from all the aesthetic value your structure once had. It is also an incredibly labor intensive process that is typically best left to a professional. Unless you have experience working with mortar, we can’t recommend trying this yourself as it can do more damage if you don’t know exactly what you are doing.
Thanks to our extensive experience repointing brick and stone for residential and commercial properties around the Gladwyne area, we are confident that we can get your mortar replaced and repaired in practically no time at all.
