Cracked, spalled or missing brick, made whole again.
Damaged brick cut out and replaced one at a time, with matching brick and mortar, so the wall is sound again and the repair does not shout.
- Scope: A single brick to a whole section
- Match: Salvaged or new brick chosen to blend
- Mortar: Mixed to match the strength and color
What it is, and why it matters.
Brick lasts a long time, but individual bricks can crack, spall or loosen from moisture, freeze and thaw cycles, settling or a bump from a vehicle. A damaged brick lets water into the wall, and small problems tend to grow if they are left alone.
We find out why the brick failed, then repair the cause and the damage. In Nashville and across Middle Tennessee that can mean cutting out and replacing single bricks, rebuilding a small section or fixing the drainage that was soaking the wall.
Four things done right.
Cause before cure
We look for water, settling or missing flashing so the new brick is not damaged the same way.
A careful cut-out
The old brick and mortar come out without chipping the bricks around them.
A match that blends
Brick and mortar are tested against the wall in daylight before they go in.
Tight, tooled joints
New mortar is packed and tooled to match the joints that are already there.

Brick Repair and Replacement: common questions
Why is my brick flaking?
Flaking, called spalling, usually comes from water that freezes inside the brick, or from a hard mortar or a coating that traps moisture. We look at the wall to find which it is.
Can one damaged brick be replaced?
Yes. A mason can cut out a single brick and set a new one in its place. The trick is a good match and a careful job, so the repair does not weaken the bricks around it.
