Palos Heights buildings we work on
Most of Palos Heights went up after World War II: brick ranches, split-levels and two-storey homes from the 1950s through the 1970s, with newer custom homes mixed in. At that age, the mortar joints on the weather side are often due, chimneys are taking a beating above the roofline, and the original steel lintels over picture windows and garage doors are starting to rust and crack the brick above them.
On the commercial side, the Harlem Avenue and 127th Street corridors are lined with one- and two-storey brick storefronts, offices and strip centers with flat roofs, parapets and long storefront lintels. Churches, schools and the multi-unit buildings around town have bigger walls and higher access, and the work has to be planned around the people using them. We do both kinds of work, and we're glad to walk either one with you.
How to choose a masonry contractor in Palos Heights
Whoever you call — us or anyone else — check these before you sign:
- Insurance certificate in hand before anyone sets up a ladder.
- A written, itemized scope — what's being tuckpointed, replaced or rebuilt, and where.
- Mortar matching — color, texture and strength suited to your brick. Hard mortar in soft brick does damage.
- Who's doing the work and who you call if you have a question afterward.
- A straight answer on repair versus replacement, not a bigger job than the wall needs.
