WHY IS THE FACE OF YOUR BRICK FALLING OFF?

If you’ve noticed pieces of brick flaking, cracking, or breaking away from your home’s exterior, you may be seeing a condition known as spalling.

And while it may look like a simple cosmetic problem, it can indicate a much larger moisture-related issue.

Brick is a durable building material, but its performance depends on the type of brick, exposure conditions, surrounding materials, and how the wall manages moisture.

Here’s what can contribute to spalling:

• Water entering through deteriorated mortar joints.

• Repeated freeze-thaw cycles in saturated masonry.

• Improper drainage or defective flashing.

• Incompatible mortar that changes how moisture and stresses are distributed.

• Certain coatings that interfere with drying.

• Poor-quality or unsuitable brick for the exposure conditions.

HERE’S WHAT MANY HOMEOWNERS DON’T REALIZE.

Water can enter masonry, become trapped or concentrated within vulnerable materials, and expand when it freezes.

Over time, that repeated stress can cause the brick face to fracture and separate.

But replacing the damaged brick without addressing the underlying moisture conditions may only provide a temporary solution.

THE BRICK ISN’T ALWAYS THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES IT’S THE WATER BEHIND IT.

Before spending money on masonry repairs, investigate where moisture is entering and whether the wall can properly drain and dry.

At Curatola Masonry, we believe restoration should address the conditions contributing to deterioration, not simply the visible damage.

Homeowner Tip: Inspect your brick after winter for flaking, loose faces, deteriorated joints, and areas where water consistently collects.

Avoid pressure washing deteriorated brick or applying sealers without understanding the existing masonry system.

A REPAIR THAT LOOKS GOOD TODAY SHOULD ALSO BE DESIGNED TO PERFORM YEARS FROM NOW.
