Professional Brick and Lintel Repair Services
Brick veneer and steel lintels work together to support the masonry above windows, doors, and garage openings. Over time, moisture, corrosion, foundation movement, and normal wear can affect these structural components, leading to cracked brick, deteriorating mortar, or sagging lintels.
United Structural Systems provides professional brick and lintel repair services designed to address these issues and help restore the stability of your home's masonry. Our team evaluates each property before recommending repair solutions based on the conditions identified during the inspection.
Signs You Need Brick or Lintel Repair
Brick and lintel damage often develops gradually. Recognizing the warning signs early can help homeowners address structural masonry concerns before they become more extensive.
If you notice any of these signs, a professional inspection can help determine the cause and identify appropriate repair options.
What Causes Brick and Lintel Damage?
Brick and lintel damage can result from several factors, including moisture intrusion, corrosion, foundation movement, and normal aging. Steel lintels may corrode over time if moisture reaches the metal, which can contribute to cracking or movement in the surrounding masonry.
Foundation settlement and shifting soil can also place additional stress on brick veneer and openings around windows and doors. Thermal expansion, weather exposure, and deteriorating mortar joints may further contribute to masonry damage over time.
A professional inspection can help determine the conditions affecting your masonry and identify appropriate brick lintel repair or structural brick repair solutions.
