Brick cleaning and restoration - older home

We are thrilled with Bill's work cleaning and restoring the bricks on our older home. Our bricks had likely not been cleaned in over 50 years at least. After we called him, Bill came over quickly reviewed our home and provided honest feedback and a fair and honest quote. He was able to come in a couple of weeks after initial visit. Him and Tom were very through cleaning the bricks and ensuring the rest of the house and windows were covered to avoid any damage. Our bricks look beautiful now and our home looks restored to its original look! We would recommend Victorian Restoration to other home owners with older homes looking to restore the beauty of their exterior.

Stripping paint from brick, new exterior limestone window sills

We hired Bill (Victorian Restoration Company) to strip the paint from the brick on our home and to replace several exterior window sills with limestone. We were thrilled with the job that he did. The brick stripping was a messy job, involving paint stripper and a high pressure wash, but Bill did an excellent job protecting our home and garden and our neighbours' homes and gardens. He also did a superb job cleaning up while the work was being done and afterwards. The finished product - the stripped brick and replaced window sills - is topnotch. I recommend Victorian Restoration Company enthusiastically.

Outside brickwork , that was chipping and sagging on a 100 year old Victorian House

The work was done on time, efficiently and professionally. Time was spent explaining the job so that the owner understood what had to be done. The worker was diligent and cleaned up the site afterwards.

Tuck Pointing and Replacement of Bricks

We hired Bill and his company to repair the mortar and replace a few damaged bricks on our 90-year-old home. He explained the job and quickly provided a quote. He was very pleasant. While he estimated it would take two days, he and his colleague took less than a full day to complete the job. They were very courteous.
I was very pleased with the work, however, it is my partner who has very high standards. He was thrilled. You cannot tell where new bricks were inserted and it looks original - but better because original would be 90 years old.
The clean-up was also impeccable. I've already recommended Bill to a friend and neighbour, who commented that his quote was very good.

Pointing and replacement of spalling Victorian bricks

We have a Victorian house which required pointing and replacement of spalling bricks in places. Bill and his team did a great job matching the colour of the century bricks and the colour of the mortar. They did such a good job around the front door, it was hard to tell which was an original brick and which was new. The team is always friendly and professional. Their prices are also highly competitive.

--Brick Cleaning Paint Removal-- Pressure washing with a mixture of our specially formulated biodegradable brick cleaning solution to remove atmospheric carbon and dirt stains from brick and stone surfaces without causing damage to existing surfaces, restoring brick and stone to its original beauty. --Brick Repair Tuck pointing-- The mortar joint plays a significant role in the structure and structural integrity of the wall. It holds the bricks together, it bears the compressive weight of the wall just as the bricks, and it keeps water out of the wall. It is also the weak link in the brick wall system because if water is allowed to get past the mortar and into the wall, brick failure may occur such as cracking or popping (spalling). We can completely restore mortar joints by grinding out all existing mortar joints and replacing with new or spot point where needed throughout the brick structure to fill up any holes and cracks to stop any further damage from occurring. Bricks replacement is a necessary maintenance procedure on any home, bricks are cut out and replaced with new or reclaimed brick to match existing shape colour texture and size.
