Moisture is one of the biggest causes of masonry deterioration.

Brick façades in Montreal are constantly exposed to rain, snow, humidity, and seasonal temperature fluctuations. Over time, excessive moisture penetration can contribute to spalling, mortar deterioration, surface wear, and costly masonry repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes brick water damage?
Water damage can occur when masonry absorbs excessive moisture from rain, snow, humidity, or poor drainage exposure.

Why is water damage a concern in Montreal?
Montreal’s climate exposes masonry to repeated moisture and freeze-thaw cycles that accelerate deterioration over time.

Can breathable protection help reduce water damage?
Reducing water absorption can help lower the risk of long-term masonry deterioration.

Why should masonry remain breathable?
