A building's façade protects the structure from weather and defines its appearance. Cracked masonry, loose bricks, rusted lintels and failing stucco are safety risks and can lead to violations. Homex Builders restores and repairs façades for homes and buildings across the Bronx, Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, Yonkers, Long Island and New Jersey.
We inspect the façade, identify unsafe and deteriorated conditions, and carry out repairs including repointing, brick and stone replacement, lintel replacement, stucco repair, sealing and parapet work, so the building is safe, watertight and looks its best.
What Our Façade Restoration Includes
Façade restoration projects commonly include:
Masonry Repair
Repointing, brick replacement and stone repair across the façade.
Lintels & Parapets
Replacing rusted lintels and repairing or rebuilding parapet walls.
Sealing & Waterproofing
Caulking, coatings and flashing that keep water out of the façade.
For buildings over six stories, façade conditions are inspected under Local Law 11 (FISP). We perform the repairs needed to address unsafe and SWARMP conditions.
