Is Your Foundation Telling You It's Time?
Take a look at the stone foundation on your home. See those cracked joints? Crumbling mortar? Dark streaks where water's been finding its way in? That's your foundation asking for help.
At Elgin County Heritage Masonry, I specialize in repointing the kind of stone foundations you see on century homes across Elgin County — sandstone, limestone, fieldstone. The original lime-based mortar wasn't built to last forever, and modern Portland cement (the wrong fix) actually traps moisture and accelerates damage.
Done right, repointing stops water infiltration before it reaches your basement, preserves the original stone for another 100+ years, protects the structural integrity of your home, and restores the look these old buildings deserve.
I work solo, I work carefully, and I work with the right materials for heritage stone — not whatever's quickest.
If your foundation looks anything like what you're seeing in my recent work, let's talk before another freeze-thaw season does more damage.
