Stone Facts

Things you need to know about stone and masonry care

Airborne soils and biological growth can darken and detract from exterior stone and masonry. Technicians will assess exactly what type of process and chemistry will be able to restore your brick and stone to its original beauty.

Working on historic properties requires craftsmen who understand the methods and materials that were used when a building was built. Careful analysis of the mortar, masonry unit, and the environment allow technicians to specify the best products to use for repair and repointing.

Water is an enemy to buildings if it is allowed to penetrate where it doesn't belong. It requires skill and knowledge to understand the proper application and choice of sealants and caulking products. Stonework Solutions can help keep water and moisture out of your building.

Interior stone needs regular maintenance to keep its beauty and stay protected. Softer stones like marble, limestone, and travertine often need honing and polishing to remove scratches, dull spots, and wear. Stonework Solutions recommends that all interior stone surfaces have sealers called impregnators applied to offer additional solution.
