If you are thinking, “What exactly is brick restoration?” You are not by any means alone. You may also be curious about how brick restoration works, whether you can restore your bricks to their former splendour, or if it is best to leave your brick restoration to the professionals.

Brick restoration is not something to be handled lightly. Making a mistake by doing it yourself can cost you a lot more money in the long run.

Bricks on the walls of buildings and properties are subjected to general weathering, dirt buildup, and air pollution. If left untreated, the quality and longevity of these bricks may degrade. Brick restoration is ideal for making your bricks seem as beautiful as new!

What Is the Process of Brick Restoration?

The key to successful brick repair is thoroughly analyzing the property’s specific requirements. With literally hundreds of Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian homes lining its streets, Toronto & the GTA has no shortage of distinct residential and commercial architecture forms.

Not to mention the many thousands of modern residences and dwellings.

As a result, the brick restoration process begins with thoroughly examining the house and its brickwork. Only then can the best line of action be determined to restore its visual appeal and protective characteristics:

• One or more of the following may be included in a typical brick repair project:
• Professional cleaning of the brickwork to remove stains.
• Removal and replacement of broken bricks.
• Precision repair of fractures and splits in the brickwork.
• Pointing and repointing where mortar is damaged or missing.
• Application of waterproofing chemicals to safeguard against future damage.

Brick Colouring or Tinting

Finding the right bricks for a renovation or extension is becoming increasingly complex, and recycled bricks are rarely accessible in adequate quantities. As a result, brick tinting, or dying bricks to match, is frequently the ideal answer. Tinting, or brick dying and staining, can be applied to any porous building material.

Because brick tinting stains the bricks, it does not modify the texture and is a far more sympathetic approach than painting or rendering processes, which are sometimes used to conceal mismatched bricks. We will match the appropriate colour without the use of a fixing agent. After a colour match, the tint is generated using the fixing agent, which permanently ties the tint to the brick.

The combination of natural colour pigments and a ‘breathable’ fixing agent results in a permanent, coloured stain that is unaffected by weathering or UV exposure. There is also no continuing maintenance once applied.

Existing brickwork should ideally be cleaned utilizing our brick cleaning services before tinting for optimal results and a uniform finish. We can also colour the bricks to match the existing weathering.
