Exterior Masonry Restoration · Downtown Ottawa
Century Brick and Chimney Restoration in Downtown Ottawa
Repointing, spalled-brick replacement and chimney work are documented across the façade and completed wall detail of a century building.
Project Overview
Documented wall and chimney masonry on a downtown century building
This downtown Ottawa exterior renovation record documents aging masonry on a century building, including deteriorated joints, spalled bricks and the existing chimney top. Ottawa Masonry used scaffold and boom-lift access across the façade and at chimney height.
The supplied project record identifies matching replacement work using Upper Canada and Victorian Moulded brick alongside repointing and documented chimney work. The photo set documents the access-intensive process and a completed wall detail above the stone foundation; it does not include a completed chimney view.
The Masonry Work
Wall repointing, brick replacement and chimney work in progress
The project record documents wall repairs and chimney work across several elevations of an older downtown property.
Brick Replacement and Repointing
Spalled units were replaced where required and deteriorated mortar joints were renewed to restore the repaired sections of the exterior wall.
High-Access Chimney Work
Boom-lift access allowed the crew to inspect the chimney and carry out documented repointing at height. The existing top was photographed before the chimney work; no completed chimney view was supplied.
Matching the Existing Exterior
Replacement brick identified for the project included Upper Canada and Victorian Moulded brick so repairs could work with the varied appearance of the existing masonry.
Project Gallery
Downtown restoration from existing conditions to completed wall detail
The gallery documents the scaffolded façade, boom-lift access, chimney condition, repointing work and the finished wall detail above the stone foundation.
The Documented Result
Renewed joints and repaired brickwork in the documented wall section
The final close view shows renewed mortar joints and repaired brickwork in the completed wall section. Because the supplied album does not include an unobstructed full-building after photo, this page limits its result statement to the finished areas visible in the project record.
