Waterproofing as a Preventative Solution!

 

CTC Masonry offers masonry waterproofing services to clients in the Chicagoland area. Our brick waterproofing is a preventative solution to stop leaks before they happen. Chicago is known for its unpredictable weather; it is important for you to prepare by properly waterproofing your home’s masonry.

Unsealed brick absorbs water, which can weaken your home’s brickwork and mortar. Our brick waterproofing and sealing services improve your home’s value by extending the life of your brickwork and beautifying its appearance. Contact CTC today for an estimate and tips on proper care for your home.

Efflorescence 

 

Removing efflorescence deposits on masonry walls…

Efflorescence is a fancy name for the white, crystalline deposits that can appear on masonry walls. These deposits occur when moisture within the brickwork rises to the surface, carrying minerals with it. While the moisture evaporates, the pesky minerals are left behind.

To some, these minerals are not appealing. In severe cases, efflorescence can become so thick that it falls off the wall and is piled on the ledge in clumps. If this substance appears on your brick or stone, contact CTC Masonry to prevent further damage.

Efflorescence may be a sign that your masonry is absorbing water. Our masonry waterproofing services can help!
