Worth buildings we work on
Worth is a compact village, and most of its homes are post-war brick ranches, Cape Cods and raised ranches on regular suburban lots. Houses of that age tend to need the same things: tuckpointing on the weather sides, chimney crowns and flashing, steel lintels over picture windows and garage doors that have started to rust, and sills that have cracked or tilted back toward the house.
The commercial side runs mostly along Harlem Avenue and 111th Street. It's one- and two-storey brick and block storefronts, restaurants, offices and mixed-use buildings with flat roofs. There, the work is usually parapets and coping, storefront lintels, sealant joints and tuckpointing scheduled around business hours.
Because we're right next door, Worth jobs are a short trip for us. That makes it easy to come out, look at a problem and put a written scope in your hands.
Common masonry problems we see in Worth
- Tilted window sills. Limestone and precast sills under picture windows settle back toward the house, so water runs into the wall instead of off the face. Resetting them with the right slope stops the staining and spalling underneath.
- Picture-window and garage lintels. Rusting steel over wide openings is the most common structural masonry repair on Worth's post-war homes.
- Chimney tops. Cracked crowns, missing caps and worn flashing let water into chimneys that have stood through sixty-plus winters.
- Storefront roof edges. On Harlem Avenue and 111th Street buildings, coping and parapet joints are usually where leaks start.
How to choose a masonry contractor in Worth
- Ask for a certificate of insurance before work starts.
- Get a written, itemized scope showing which walls, how much repointing, and which bricks, lintels or sills.
- Ask how they'll match the mortar in color, texture and hardness.
- Ask whether they'll tell you what can wait. A good mason ranks the work by urgency.
- Choose someone accountable. Paul Lally's Masonry's family name is on every job, and we stand behind our work.
