Window sills are professionally installed to direct water away from masonry, reduce long-term damage, and ensure a clean, durable finish around every window opening.
Window sill installation has been trusted by homeowners looking to prevent moisture damage and maintain the integrity of their masonry walls
Window sills are continuously exposed to rain, snow, and temperature changes. Over time, improper slope, water pooling, freeze-thaw cycles, and aging materials can cause cracking, separation, or moisture penetration around window openings.
When window sill problems are left unaddressed, moisture intrusion can spread into surrounding brickwork and wall systems. Delays may lead to interior water damage, masonry deterioration, and higher repair costs. Early attention is often recommended to prevent more extensive repairs.
In most cases, window sill installation or replacement is completed early to prevent moisture damage and protect surrounding masonry. Prompt installation with proper slope and sealing is generally considered the most effective way to ensure long-term performance and durability.
These before and after examples show how properly installed window sills help restore moisture control, improve appearance, and protect surrounding masonry for safe, long-term performance.
New installation is typically recommended when sills are missing, improperly sloped, severely deteriorated, or being replaced as part of window or masonry upgrades.

The work done included parging and repair of the foundation as well as brick repointing and other small repairs (e.g. filling various holes from utilities or other). The work took two full days and we are very pleased with the work done. Everything was done with care and professionalism and it was very reassuring to see the pride that they took in their work. Overall price was fair for the work done. Jerri has a lot of experience and knowledge and we trusted his suggestions. We will definitely keep them in mind for future projects.Posted on Thomas HatherlyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. DS Masonry and Restoration, thank you for a job well done. you completed working on my front porch September 28, 2025. Since then, your work has proven to be aesthetically and practically sound. Much more important than the compliments I have received from neighbours on the aesthetics, is the fact that I no longer have water seeping through to my basement. I am grateful you suggested the extension of the top concrete slab, as it has proven to keep my basement dry.
