The Importance of the Brick Sealing Against the NYC Weather

Brick is inherently porous thus water will readily seep into it. In the New York climate with regular alternation of thawing and freezing, the expansion of frozen water inside the brick will cause serious damage. The Issue – Impact of water damage and physical damage to the Brick material.

Exposed bricks will create the following problems at a faster rate.

Loss of brick and cracking. Freeze-thaw cycle will damage the brick surface, leading to the loss of brickwork. This weakens the structure.

Efflorescence. The water running through masonry picks up salts that can dissolve, and when the water dries out, it leaves a dirty white powder on the surface.

Mold and Mildew. When brick and mortar are damp, mold and mildew can proliferate, which will ruin the brick and is injurious to the health.

Mortar Damage. The water erosion of the mortar joints is detrimental to premature and expensive tuckpointing work.

The Solution.: Professional, Breathable Sealing

White Marble Construction is a company that provides superior sealing of brick. Our seal of brickwork provides an air-permeable barrier that prevents ingress of water and does not block moisture inside the brick. We use high quality Siloxane or Silane sealers that enter the brick and prevent most of the water but allow the wall to breathe and dry naturally.

The professional brick sealing of your property will bring you instant and lasting profit.

Extended Life Duration: The sealant reduces water absorption and therefore the risk of freeze-thaw damage, and it lengthens the life of the brickwork and mortar.

Stain Resistance: The sealant forms a barrier between the brick and dirt and grease and pollutants making the brick easier to clean and retain its professional appearance.

Visual Protection: Sealant protects the color of brick against ultraviolet radiation and against the development of efflorescence.

• Shielding newer repairs

Significant masonry works such as repointing or replacement of bricks should be followed by sealing to shield the new mortar and enhance its durability to the maximum possible extent.

• Easier Maintenance

Once sealed, the surface would be less prone to moss, mold, or deep stains and will make the cleaning process much easier for the owner.

Brick Sealing Process of White Marble Construction Inc.

Being an authorized and seasoned general contractor in NYC, we ensure that the brick sealing process is performed correctly to achieve the best results:

Cleaning: First, we clean the brick surface thoroughly in the proper way (soft wash or pressure washing) to get rid of dirt, mold, and any white salt deposits. It must be totally clean and dry before we seal it.

Repair (If Necessary): We repair or seal any cracks, damaged mortar joints, or damaged bricks before applying the sealant. Sealing damage just traps the problem.

Sealant Application: Our qualified professionals apply the selected penetrating sealant in thin layers over a period of several applications to guarantee total coverage and deep penetration.

Final Inspection: We inspect the work to ensure that the seal is even and uniform and that your structure will be protected for several years.

Typically, in the harsh conditions of NYC, you need to reapply sealant every 7 to 10 years, though this may be more or less depending on the sealant used and exposure.

The Importance of Brick Sealing

The fluctuating weather in New York City presents a challenge for any structure. Bricks can absorb moisture, leading to problems like dampness, mold, and weakened mortar joints. In winter, water trapped inside can freeze and expand, resulting in cracks or surface flaking. Additionally, pollution clings to unsealed bricks, diminishing the appearance of your building.

Using high-quality sealants is crucial; these products inhibit water penetration while allowing the brick to breathe. This dual-action process helps to prevent cracks, stains, and moisture buildup, ensuring your building retains its fresh look over time.
