Masonry Challenges in Don Mills Homes
Don Mills’ historic and modern properties face unique masonry issues due to their age and Toronto’s climate. A&A Masonry’s tailored solutions ensure your home’s beauty and strength are preserved.
Mortar erosion from freeze-thaw cycles
Toronto’s harsh winters cause water to infiltrate mortar joints, freezing and eroding them, weakening structural integrity. We restore joints with breathable, lime-based mortars, ensuring durability and harmony with Don Mills’ modern charm.
Spalling or cracked brick on older facades
Prolonged exposure to moisture and temperature shifts causes bricks to crack or flake, diminishing Don Mills’ stylish facades. We replace damaged bricks with precise matches and apply sealants to prevent further wear.
Staining and efflorescence from moisture exposure
Moisture can cause white efflorescence or stains on brick and stone, dulling Don Mills’ elegant appeal. We clean surfaces and install drainage systems like weeping tiles to maintain a pristine appearance.
Structural wear on chimneys and decorative stone features
Don Mills’ ornate chimneys and stone elements endure weather-related wear, risking instability. We reinforce these with expert repairs, using period-appropriate materials to preserve their architectural elegance.

What Don Mills Clients Say
July 17, 2024
I live in a 97 year old brick house in Central Toronto. Having stripped the paint off the bricks on the back wall of the house, it was clear that the mortar had seen better days. I reached out to A&A. Nigel advised me that the bricks were in good shape, but the mortar on the back wall, the front porch pillar and a few other places would have to be ground out and replaced with new mortar. I agreed to proceed requesting a quick turnaround. Within two weeks, Tera came and did all the grinding in one day until quite late to make sure all the dust (and there was a lot of dust) was washed down. With some assistance from a colleague, Tera got the mortaring done in two additional days. I couldn't be happier with the result or the process. Tera did a great job. My brickwork is restored to it's original glory! Thanks Tera and all at A&A.

Brick Repointing

Kim, the sales person from A&A masonry, came out and gave us a quote. Restoration project was complicated but Kim was excellent in answering all of my questions and putting me at ease. Eduardo and his crew did a great job in restoring a 100 year old building. They removed all spalling bricks and bricks with efflorescence. They parged areas that required parging and replaced a limestone door sill, all within 4 days. The work was top quality and done to perfection. I would definitely hire Eduardo and his crew again! Thanks Eduardo for all your hard work and attention to detail.

Building Restoration

Found A&A Masonry on Homestars. Our 100 yr old house had spalling bricks. Greg came to our place shortly after calling for inspection and quote. We had Dwight come by and do the job and he did a great job. He was a champ and did a 12 hr day in the blistering heat (humidex in the 40s!) to complete the job in one day. The brick was matched very well, considering the original brick hasn't been made in years. and most of it had to be done around our gas line. Still, Dwight got it all done. He was very polite and professional and cleaned up afterwards, even after such a long day. He earned his pay and then some. We couldn't be happier with the job done and would absolutely recommend in a heartbeat. Give A&A a call if you have any masonry work needed. Ask for Dwight-and if you can, try and get him on a day when it's under 40 degrees out. Great work!
