1. Structural Stone Foundation Repair
When a stone foundation begins to bow or sink, cosmetic fixes won't cut it. No sealant alone can relieve the massive lateral pressure of shifting earth. We provide complete structural restoration, including:
- Carefully removing aged, flaky mortar.
- Resetting loose structural stones and shims.
- Rebuilding failing or buckling wall sections with masonry precision.
2. Expert Repointing & Lime Mortar Restoration
Older foundations require specialized materials. Using harsh modern Portland cement on historic, soft stone or brick can cause rapid deterioration. We professionally match materials, utilizing traditional sand, hydrated lime, and precise masonry blends to render your walls breathable, strong, and watertight.
3. Spalling Brick & Corner Rebuilding
If the brick portions of your foundation are crumbling, we can clean and treat the damaged clay. For severe deterioration, we cut out the compromised brickwork and seamlessly tie in new or historical-matching brick courses to restore load-bearing capacity.
4. Basement Waterproofing & Sealants
Once the structural foundation repairs are complete, we apply heavy-duty waterproof coatings to shield your masonry from water saturation. From traditional European white-washing to advanced elastomeric masonry membranes, we customize the waterproofing barrier to match the specific age and water table metrics of your Woburn property.
Don't wait for a wet basement or a minor wall crack to turn into an expensive structural failure. Let our expert masons inspect your basement and give you peace of mind.
