Saint-Sébastien Church Brick Repointing
Brick replacement and mortar-joint renewal completed across targeted exterior walls at Saint-Sébastien Church in Vanier.
Project Overview
Targeted brick restoration across the church exterior
Ottawa Masonry Contracting Inc. completed targeted repointing and brick replacement at Saint-Sébastien Church in Vanier. The documented areas include walls below windows, side elevations and masonry near the office entrance.
Weathered mortar was removed and renewed while damaged bricks were replaced selectively. The work was sequenced around landscaping, access equipment and occupied-property conditions.
The completed areas show more consistent mortar joints and repaired brickwork while preserving the character of the existing church exterior.
The Masonry Work
Renewed joints and selective brick replacement around active site conditions
Each repair area was assessed independently so sound masonry could remain and only failed material was replaced.
Joint Preparation
Deteriorated mortar was removed to create a clean bonding surface.
Brick Replacement
Damaged units were replaced selectively and aligned with existing courses.
Final Tooling
Mortar joints were finished consistently across the restored wall areas.
