Because they are sometimes massive in size and constructed of tough materials, masonry buildings can appear
invincible. In truth, the facades that give these structures character are under attack at all times. Age,
moisture, airborne pollutants, movement and deferred maintenance all contribute to the deterioration
process. Left uncorrected, resulting problems can become far more than "skin deep."
Masonry distress takes many forms, including cracks, loose units, flaking, efflorescence and spalling. Each
of these conditions indicates the building’s masonry exterior is failing, and calls for expert repairs to
prevent major damage.
