Water intrusion, freeze-thaw cycles, and aging mortar are common causes of cracking and spalling.
Brick damage rarely stays isolated. Early repairs prevent larger rebuilds and higher costs.
Damaged mortar allows moisture to enter and weakens the brick structure over time. Early repair helps prevent further deterioration
Unstable bricks are a sign of failing support and can affect the safety of your home. Prompt repairs restore strength and stability.
Interior moisture or staining often points to exterior masonry damage. Addressing the source early can prevent costly interior repairs.
White residue on brick surfaces indicates moisture moving through the masonry. While common, it often signals underlying water issues.
These before and after images highlight how brick repair and repointing are used to restore strength, safety, and appearance. All work is completed with attention to durability, proper materials, and long-term protection
The service typically includes removal of damaged materials, repair or replacement where required, proper mortar application, and a final inspection to ensure quality and durability.
The work is carried out in stages, beginning with preparation and followed by repair or repointing. The area is kept organized, and disruption is kept to a minimum throughout the project.
Repaired areas are completed using closely matched materials. Once the work is finished and the mortar has cured, repairs are intended to blend naturally with the existing brickwork.
Most projects are completed with limited disruption. Noise and dust are kept under control, and surrounding areas are protected while work is being completed.
If additional issues are discovered during the work, they are identified and explained before any further action is taken. No unexpected work is completed without discussion.
After completion, the brickwork is expected to be structurally sound, visually improved, and better protected from moisture and further deterioration.

Posted on D BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’re very pleased by the work done by Jerri and his team at DS Masonry. 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.

We hired Jerri to cover our front porch in Flexstone, to repair some loose bricks at the corners of the garage and also parging around the porch. As I was watching him work his high standards and work ethic became very clear. We could not be happier with the results and would recommend him hands down!!Posted on David D.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
