Brick Repair Services in Buffalo, NY and Beyond

Bricks are unbelievably durable, but over time they will begin to break down and show signs of wear and tear. One of the largest problems when it comes to brick damage is water. Having freezing, unpredictable winters in Buffalo, NY increases the likelihood that your bricks will eventually need to be replaced. During the summer, water and moisture can still make its way into your bricks but it will eventually evaporate and typically won’t cause damage. In the winter, the water that gets into the bricks has the potential to freeze causing the bricks to expand. When this pressure continues winter after winter, it can lead to cracking and crumbling eventually allowing large surface areas to fall off or crumble to the ground. Vito & Sons have over a decade of experience with brick repair in the Buffalo, NY area, and will be sure your repair has long-lasting results.  

Signs You Need Brick Repair

There are some red flags to look for when you might be thinking it’s time to replace or repair bricks on your property. Catching and dealing with these brick problems early will prevent larger problems from happening in the future and could potentially save you money and stop permanent damage from happening to your home. Some issues you should look out for are:

 

  • Deteriorated or Missing Mortar- Mortar is the “glue” that keeps your bricks together. When it begins to deteriorate or chip away, the bricks can rub together or begin to warp. Choosing an experienced brick repair company is essential to prevent long-term or expensive damages.
  • Bowed Bricks- Cracked or bowed bricks will allow water to enter and damage your home. Most of the time one single brick with damage can be a sign that many others are about to have the same issue. The affected area needs to be repaired or replaced to prevent more significant damage.
  • Interior Damage- Damaged bricks can lead to problems within your home. If you start to notice moisture in your walls, start to feel drafts, or see deformed windows it may be time for repair.
  • Cracked Bricks- Naturally bricks will crack over time, but large cracks can lead to bigger problems such as collapsing. Cracked bricks should be repaired to prevent future and larger damages from happening.
