Are those cracked or crumbling bricks becoming an eyesore – and a structural concern – on your property?

We're Arlington Heights Masonry, and we specialize in expert brick repair that stops the damage, restores integrity, and seamlessly brings your brickwork back to life.

What We Cover:


What Causes Brick Damage in Our Climate?

Our harsh freeze-thaw cycles are a primary culprit, causing bricks to expand and contract, leading to cracks and spalling. Excessive moisture, whether from leaky gutters or improper drainage, can also saturate bricks, accelerating their breakdown. Even normal wear and tear over decades takes its toll. Understanding these environmental stressors helps us apply the most effective repair strategies, ensuring your brickwork can withstand future seasonal shifts and protect your home.


Our Meticulous Brick Repair Techniques

You deserve more than a superficial fix. Our approach to brick repair in Arlington Heights, Illinois is thorough and precise. We carefully remove damaged bricks and mortar without compromising the surrounding structure. Then, we meticulously prepare the area for new materials. A crucial step is sourcing new bricks that match your existing ones in size, texture, and color. We then precisely lay the new bricks and expertly apply custom-blended mortar, ensuring a seamless, structurally sound repair that’s virtually indistinguishable from the original masonry. This commitment to detail ensures a lasting repair, not just a temporary patch.

Preventing Future Brick Damage

Once your bricks are repaired, you'll want to protect that investment. Preventing future damage often involves simple maintenance. Ensure your gutters are clean and properly diverting water away from your foundation. Address any landscaping that traps moisture against brick walls. Consider professional masonry cleaning and sealing every few years to protect against water penetration and weathering. While nothing lasts forever, these proactive steps, especially important for homes along busy streets can significantly extend the life of your brickwork and reduce the need for future repairs.
