Brick & Masonry Repair in London: what to expect

Southwestern Ontario weather around London runs humid in summer with its own freeze-thaw swings, and a lot of the housing stock is older, so damp, wear and dated systems come up often.

One thing we factor in for London jobs: Post-war bungalow neighbourhoods hold large numbers of original bathrooms and kitchens still in service.

About London homes

London has one of southwestern Ontario's deepest housing stocks: century homes in Old North and Wortley Village, wide bands of post-war bungalows, 1970sโ€“90s family subdivisions, and a big rental market anchored by Western and Fanshawe. Yellow-brick Victorians are a local signature, and keeping them sound is skilled, worthwhile work.

The rental side brings its own rhythm โ€” turnovers, repairs, repainting โ€” while owner-occupied neighbourhoods work through kitchens, bathrooms and basements that have run decades past their design life. Whatever your London home needs, request a free quote.

What affects your London brick & masonry repair cost

What you'll pay for brick & masonry repair in London depends on a few real things:

  • How many square metres of joints need repointing
  • Brick matching, especially on discontinued or heritage brick
  • Mortar type โ€” lime-based mixes for older homes take more care
  • How far the damage has gone behind the visible face
  • Season โ€” mortar doesn't cure properly in freezing temperatures
  • Whether structural elements like lintels are involved
  • Humidity and moisture history in London homes, which can mean extra prep on anything that has been damp.

Common questions

Is London inside your service area?
Yes โ€” London is one of the areas we actively take work in, and we quote the surrounding communities too. The quote form confirms it against your postal code.
What happens after I submit my London request?
We review the details and photos, ask a question or two if something's unclear, and come back with a quote. You decide from there โ€” no obligation, no follow-up pressure.
My London job is tiny. Will anyone take it?
That's exactly what we're for. "No job too small" isn't a slogan we drop on page two โ€” describe the fix, however minor, and you'll get a quote for it.
My house is over 100 years old. Does that change the repair?
It changes everything. Old brick is softer and was laid with lime mortar. Repointing it with modern Portland-heavy mortar traps moisture in the brick and accelerates spalling. Older homes need a softer, breathable mix and a mason who's worked with them before.
Is a leaning or cracked chimney urgent?
Treat it seriously. A stepped crack or visible lean can mean the crown has failed and water has been freezing inside the stack for years. Beyond the leak risk, loose masonry at roof height is a safety issue. Photos from the ground are enough for us to give you a first read.
