Tinley Park buildings we work on
Tinley Park covers a lot of different buildings, and the masonry problems change with them.
- Postwar and 1960s–80s brick ranches and raised ranches. These have tired mortar joints, settled front steps, and rusting lintels over picture windows and garages.
- Townhome and condo associations. Long runs of brick veneer that age together, with sealant at end of life, plugged weep holes, and boards that need written scopes to compare.
- Downtown along Oak Park Avenue near the Metra station. Older brick storefronts and mixed-use buildings with parapets, coping and storefront lintels.
- Industrial and flex buildings in the business parks. Concrete block walls, control joints, dock jambs and block parapets under metal coping.
Common masonry problems we see in Tinley Park
Raised ranches and split-levels. These often have a brick lower level and siding above, so the brick takes splash-back from the roof and the walk. We see eroded joints along the bottom few courses, spalled brick where salt from the driveway hits, and settled stoops pulling away from the house.
Picture windows and garage openings. Wide openings on 1960s–80s homes rest on steel lintels that are now forty to sixty years old. Rust jacking shows up as a horizontal crack at the corner of the opening and a lifted course of brick above it.
Associations. On rows of identical buildings, problems repeat. If one building's sealant has failed on the west face, the others usually have too. We scope it as a set so the board can plan and budget once instead of chasing leaks one unit at a time.
Commercial and industrial. Block walls crack where control joints are missing or failed, dock jambs take truck hits, and block parapets leak under metal coping. Downtown storefronts show the older version: soft brick, stone coping and storefront lintels.

How to choose a masonry contractor in Tinley Park
- Insurance first. Ask for the certificate before work starts. We provide ours.
- An itemized, written scope, so you or your board can compare bids line by line instead of guessing.
- Mortar matching. Ask what mortar type and color they'll use, and why.
- Know who's on the job. Ask who will do the work and who stands behind it afterward.
- Water before cosmetics. A good mason fixes where the water gets in before worrying about how it looks.
