POPULAR QUESTIONS
-
What is the difference between brick and concrete?
Bricks are made out of a mixture of either clay or shale. Concrete pavers are made out of specially formulated mixture of cement. Concrete pavers have a very high compressive strength which makes them excellent for driveways, walkways, patios and more.
-
Can masonry construction help with my broken chimney?
Yes. Contact us immediately if your chimney is broken. No matter what happened or where it’s broken, it’s extremely unsafe to use. We can even fix your chimney crown. The chimney crown is the top, flat part of the chimney covered with cement. It’s sloped usually to shed water, while protecting and holding together the chimney top.
-
What is considered masonry construction?
Conventional masonry materials include brick, concrete block, natural and cut stone that is applied over a concrete masonry base.
-
How do I know if my masonry needs repair?
Common signs include cracked or crumbling mortar joints, spalling brick, peeling or cracked parging on your foundation, water stains near your chimney, or visible gaps in your brickwork. Ottawa’s freeze-thaw climate accelerates masonry deterioration catching issues early prevents costly rebuilds.

"Joe and his team showed up on time and did a great job of repairing the parging on the front of my home. They left the job site clean, looks great, and did it all at a very competitive price. The project involved a very aggressive schedule and it was completed on time. We would certainly like to use their professional services again."
