Start describing your project here... Brownstone Sill & Lintel Restoration

Over time, water infiltration, freeze-thaw cycles, and urban pollution cause historic brownstone sills and lintels to crack, spall, and decay. Damaged window sills and door lintels are not just cosmetic issues—they compromise the structural integrity of your building and cause severe leaks.

Our specialized brownstone restoration process safely strips away degraded material down to the healthy core stone. We then rebuild your sills and lintels using custom-mixed, breathable brownstone mortar that perfectly matches the historic texture, color, and profile of your original facade.

Professional Brick Pointing & Repair

Failing, crumbling, or missing mortar joints allow moisture to penetrate your brickwork, leading to structural instability and interior water damage. Our professional brick pointing (tuckpointing) services protect your property while dramatically improving its curb appeal.

We carefully rake out failing, old mortar without damaging the surrounding brick. For historic properties, we formulate a custom lime-based mortar mix that matches the strength, flexibility, and color of the original building materials. This ensures your facade breathes naturally and prevents the accelerated brick cracking that happens when modern cement is used on historic clay bricks.
