Masonry Restoration & Preservation
PRESERVING Older & HISTORIC MASONRY Homes
Historic masonry homes were designed to perform differently than modern construction. Preserving them requires an understanding of traditional materials, original construction methods, and how masonry ages over time.
K.B. Masonry specializes in historic masonry preservation through compatible repairs, traditional lime mortars, and restoration methods developed for older brick and stone homes.
Original Materials and Craftsmanship
Successful preservation begins with respecting the materials that have allowed a building to endure for generations. Mortar selection, repair methods, and restoration techniques should remain compatible with the original masonry whenever possible.
Every project is approached with careful consideration for the home’s character, performance, and long-term preservation.
Historic Masonry Restoration & Preservation
Historic masonry preservation often includes a combination of services tailored to the building's needs, including brick repointing, stone repointing, mortar matching, selective masonry repairs, and masonry cleaning.
Each restoration is guided by the condition of the masonry and the goal of preserving the home for future generations.
