What this service covers
We seal after the masonry is sound: open joints filled, failed brick addressed, then a breathable water repellent suited to brick or stone. Sealer over failed joints is wasted money — we say so.
Seal open joints and apply masonry-compatible water repellents after repairs. Serving Columbus, Blacklick, Reynoldsburg, Gahanna, Westerville, Dublin, and nearby communities.

FAQ
Should I seal before tuckpointing?
No. Repair joints first, then seal.
Will sealer stop basement leaks alone?
Rarely. Leaks often need drainage and joint repair — sealer is a helper, not a miracle.
How long does sealer last?
It varies with exposure and product. Weather faces wear faster than sheltered walls.
Is every brick wall a candidate?
Some historic soft brick assemblies need a careful product choice — or none. We discuss that on site.
