Project: Masonry Investigation & Repair
Next Gen Services, Ltd. was contracted to provide access and investigative masonry services to the Architect for the 1918 vintage brick structure. Long term leaking had been reported by the unit Owner, who had experienced significant interior water damage. NGS provided water testing and masonry services to assist the Architect to locate several paths for water infiltration. After a scope of repairs was assembled, NGS utilized our extensive knowledge of vintage residential masonry structures to rebuild deteriorated exterior wall components including parapet walls, copings, cornice elements and brick/limestone pilasters back to water resistant condition. In consultation with the Architect, our skilled craftsmen delivered solid and watertight repairs, providing the unit owner with relief from their long term water problems.
