Spalled Brick Replacement
Faces that flaked away
Brick with a broken or flaking face is cut out and replaced with matched brick, then pointed to blend with the wall.
Small masonry problems become big ones when water gets in. Ten brick and stone repairs we handle for homes across St. Louis, from a single bad brick to a bulging wall.


Repair work depends on what failed, why it failed, and how much of the wall is affected. We confirm your price in a written quote after the free evaluation.
Faces that flaked away
Brick with a broken or flaking face is cut out and replaced with matched brick, then pointed to blend with the wall.
Cracks that follow the joints
Stair-step cracks are repaired and the cause is looked at, whether it is settlement, water, or rusting steel.
Above windows and doors
Rusted steel lintels push brick apart. We remove the brick above, replace or treat the lintel, and relay the brick.
Brick pulling away
Sections of brick that have bowed or separated are taken down and rebuilt, tied back properly to the structure.
Limestone and fieldstone
Cracked, loose, or eroded stone is reset, patched, or replaced, with mortar suited to the stone.
Below the first floor
Loose stone and brick foundation walls are repointed and rebuilt where needed to keep water and pests out.
Sills that shed water
Cracked or tilted brick and stone sills are reset or replaced so water runs off instead of into the wall.
Leaning or loose
Loose caps, fallen units, and leaning sections are rebuilt, with drainage reviewed so the problem does not come back.
Loose treads fixed
Loose, cracked, or settled masonry steps are reset or rebuilt so they are solid and safe again.
Respecting the original
Repairs to older St. Louis brick and stone with matched materials and soft lime mortar, so the repair does not damage the original masonry.

A repair only lasts if the cause is fixed too. These are the things we look at on site before we put any number in writing.
