Brickwork Services Bellwood 

What are some of the cool things you can do with brick?  Well, living in Bellwood, Illinois you will see brick everywhere!  Chimneys, fireplaces, and more!  Here are just some of the reasons why bricks are awesome and we specialize in them:

Fireplaces – inside or outside you can build a beautiful fireplace out of brick.  Most homes in Niles already have a brick fireplace that they use during the winter. This can lower your heating bills and let you enjoy a cozy night on the couch.  

Lintels – Lintels are concrete beams that connect two columns together.  Due to the age of the structures in Bellwood and Chicago, you will see Lintels all the time.  However, making sure these structures are attractive and structurally sound is important. If you have a broken lintel call us today and we can help make sure that it does not crumble or deteriorate completely.

Prevent Decay

In order to prevent your bricks from decaying, you want to prevent moisture.  Anything you can do to prevent moisture from getting into your bricks will prevent the decay of the bricks.  In Bellwood, this is tough because we seem to go from snow to rain, to warm rain, to cold rain, to snow. So what are some things that you can to try and prevent the breaking of your bricks?  Here are some steps you can take: 

  1. Use a Bretheable Sealant – One of the biggest problems is during construction or during repair work people or businesses don’t use the right type of sealant.  It’s counterintuitive, but water will go in and out of bricks pores naturally.  By putting on a sealant you will prevent that process trapping water into your brick which then will cause cracking and decay. 
  2. Replace broken bricks – If a brick breaks or cracks replace the brick as soon as possible.  This will prevent further water from going into the brick or behind it and prevent further decay.  
  3. Tuckpointing – No it’s not a commercial for another service of ours, it is the truth. Good tuckpointing can really protect your bricking from decay and help the brick last longer. 
  4. Improper Placement – When constructing your brick project putting lower grade bricks on the bottom will cause the, to crack under the pressure.  This is another reason why trusting a local brickwork service in Bellwood, Illinois with your project will not only help construct the project but also can make your project last longer.
