Common Brick Repair Issues in Hamilton
Spalling Brick from Freeze-Thaw Cycles
Ontario's harsh winters cause water to freeze and expand in brick pores, leading to surface spalling and structural damage that requires professional brick replacement.
Deteriorating Mortar Joints
Ontario's weather extremes break down mortar over time, allowing water infiltration that can damage both bricks and interior structures.
Efflorescence on Historic Brick
White mineral deposits commonly appear on historic brick buildings across Ontario, indicating moisture problems that need immediate attention.
Heritage Building Compliance Issues
Heritage areas throughout Ontario require specific materials and techniques that only experienced local masons can properly execute.

Frequently Asked Questions About Brick Repair in Hamilton

Brick repair costs in Ontario typically range from $15-30 per square foot for repointing and $25-50 per brick for individual brick replacement. Factors include damage extent, brick type, heritage requirements, and accessibility. We provide free detailed estimates for all projects.

Do I need permits for brick repair in Ontario?
Most brick repairs don't require permits, but heritage properties may need heritage approval. We handle all permit applications and ensure compliance with local building codes and heritage requirements.
How long do brick repairs last in Ontario's climate?
Properly executed brick repairs using quality materials can last 25-30 years in Ontario's climate. Our repairs are specifically designed to withstand freeze-thaw cycles and harsh winters for maximum durability.
What's the difference between repointing and tuckpointing?
Repointing removes old mortar and replaces it with new mortar. Tuckpointing is a decorative technique using two colors of mortar to create the appearance of fine joints. Both improve structural integrity and are commonly used in heritage buildings.
When is the best time for brick repair in Ontario?
Spring through fall (April-October) is ideal for brick repair in Ontario. We avoid winter work when possible due to freezing temperatures affecting mortar curing, though emergency repairs can be done year-round with proper precautions.
