Honest assessments, matched brick, mortar that belongs — and a written, transferable warranty on every repair since 1998.
Book my free assessmentCall (905) 555-0186Third owner, same standard since 1998: do it once, in writing, with mortar that matches.
Crowns, caps, flashing, and full above-roofline rebuilds — matched brick, proper flue, built to OBC Part 9.
Failed mortar cut out and repointed with the right mix — not smeared over. The wall breathes, the water stays out.
Honest triage first: cosmetic cracks named as cosmetic, structural ones fixed properly and warrantied in writing.
New veneer, matching repairs, and heritage-sensitive restoration that doesn’t look like a patch.
WETT-certified inspections for insurance, purchases, and peace of mind — report the same day.
Concrete steps, porch caps, and parging that survive freeze-thaw instead of shedding in spring.
Most cracks are cosmetic. Some aren’t. Here’s roughly how we read them — and we’ll tell you which yours is, even when the answer makes us no money.
Hairline cracks, vertical shrinkage lines, cracks in parging only. Worth watching, rarely worth losing sleep — or paying for.
Stair-step cracks in block or brick, horizontal cracks, anything visibly widening season over season. Book the free assessment.
White staining, spalling faces, crumbling mortar. The wall is telling you where the water goes. Fixable — best fixed before winter does it for you.
We look at the wall, the water paths, and the history — and listen to what you’ve noticed changing.
Cosmetic or structural, in plain English — with photos of what we saw and why we think so.
One number for the right repair. No scare quotes, no “while we’re up there” surprises.
The repair, the materials, and the workmanship — on paper, transferable if you sell.
Wood-burning? Your insurer will ask for a WETT report — often with very little notice. And every repair we do leaves with paper, not promises.
Level 1 inspections for insurance and home purchases, typically $250–$400 — report delivered the same day, formatted the way insurers want it.
Repair, materials, and workmanship on paper. Selling the house? The warranty goes with it — most competitors don’t offer that.
Chimneys to OBC Part 9 and CSA B365 clearances — because the prettiest rebuild is worthless if the inspector fails it.
“Two other companies quoted a full chimney rebuild. Brickhollow repointed the top six courses and replaced the crown for a third of the price. It’s been perfect through two winters.”
Diane W.Whitby“Insurance gave us ten days to produce a WETT report. Inspected Tuesday, report in hand Tuesday night. Saved the renewal.”
Marcus F.Oshawa“Told me my basement crack was cosmetic and charged me nothing to look. When the porch needed real work a year later, guess who I called.”
Priya A.Ajax“Matched 1954 brick so well I can’t find the repair from the sidewalk. Proper craftsmen.”
Gord & Ellen S.Bowmanville“Repointed the whole north wall. Clean site, straight joints, and the price was the price.”
Tony M.Courtice“Fireplace rebuilt and WETT-certified before the home sale closed. Buyer’s inspector had zero notes.”

Usually not — hairline and vertical shrinkage cracks are typically cosmetic. Stair-step cracks, horizontal cracks, or anything widening year over year deserves eyes on it. The assessment is free either way, and we’ll tell you honestly which kind you have.
Crown and cap repairs often run in the hundreds; most above-roofline rebuilds land between $3,000 and $8,000 depending on height and brick; full rebuilds more. You get one fixed written number after we look.
Typically $250–$400 for an insurance-grade Level 1 inspection, and we fast-track insurer deadlines — inspected this week, report the same day.
In writing, always — repair, materials, and workmanship. And the warranty is transferable if you sell the house, which most companies won’t offer.
No pressure, no scare tactics. A look, a plain-English answer, and a fixed price only if you actually need one.
