Protect your brick façade from water absorption, freeze-thaw damage, and costly masonry repairs with breathable waterproofing designed for Montreal homes.
Older brick façades in Montreal are exposed to rain, snow, humidity, and freeze-thaw cycles. When brick absorbs water, that moisture can freeze, expand, and slowly weaken the masonry surface.
Boreal Masonry Protection applies a breathable water-repellent treatment designed to reduce water absorption while still allowing the masonry to release internal moisture.
1. Façade Assessment
We inspect the brick, mortar joints, moisture exposure, and visible signs of deterioration.
2. Surface Preparation
The façade is prepared so the treatment can properly bond with the masonry surface.
3. Breathable Protection Application
A breathable water-repellent treatment is applied to help protect the brick from future moisture absorption
Water absorption, surface wear, and freeze-thaw exposure can slowly turn a manageable prevention issue into a costly masonry repair.
Is brick waterproofing the same as sealing?
Not exactly. Boreal focuses on breathable, water-repellent protection that reduces water absorption without trapping moisture inside the wall.
Will it change the look of my brick?
The goal is to preserve the natural appearance of the brick while adding moisture protection.
When should I waterproof my brick?
Ideally, before major deterioration appears. If your brick absorbs water, darkens after rain, or shows early surface wear, it may be time to assess it.
