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.
