Masonry sealer is the most efficient way to protect your building from moisture. It’s a preemptive approach to protecting your building, which will save your time and money in the future. The sealer provides a protective layer between your building and the elements.
Before any sealer is applied, it’s recommended that you compete an exterior cleaning of your brick or stone. This removes the any build up and opens up the pores of the brick. This makes it easier for the sealer to adhere to the brick or stone. You can learn more about our masonry and chemical cleaning here.
The most popular sealer we use is CHEM-TRETE 40 VOC. This is a masonry sealer that’s clean, penetrating and breathable. It allow moisture to escape the building, but not penetrate. When applied, it penetrates the surface of the brick or stone to get complete moisture protection.
