North Shore stone Foundation Repairs
Stone foundations in Massachusetts were built with natural stone and lime mortar. Lime mortar at the time was completely free of Portland cement. Lime mortar foundations were also coated on the inside with a lime coating or white wash. The mortar itself and coating overtime dry out due to ground waters and need repairs. Many basement walls have never been repaired from the 1700's, 1800's and early 1920's. Our company specializes in the restoration and repairs of stone foundations. We are professional stone masons with generations of experience in the restoration of stone foundations.
North Shore Brick Foundation Repairs
Brick foundations in Massachusetts were built with natural stone and brick above grade. With the ease of use and exactness for builders they were a popular choice for foundation construction. As homes became more elaborate and estates started being constructed in the area. Bricks foundations were an upgrade from rough field stone or ledge. Brick foundations commonly need repairs at the ground level where the stone foundation base meets the brick foundation. Exterior grades change over the generations and ground water saturates the bricks causing damage to mortar and the brick itself. Using the wrong sealant or mortar can also trap moisture in the soft kilned bricks and cause spalling. We are expert brick layers and can repair all aspects of brick foundation repairs. We provide brick pointing, spalling brick replacement, brick section rebuilds and brick foundation restoration and preservation services.
