Commercial Masonry Services
Structural and aesthetic brick, block, stone, and concrete work for commercial buildings.
Masonry is what most commercial buildings in the DMV are made of, and it needs maintenance. Failed mortar joints, spalling brick, cracked lintels, and deteriorated sealants let water into the wall, where it causes far more expensive damage. TopKey repairs and restores brick, block, and stone masonry on office buildings, apartment communities, schools, churches, and retail properties.
Our masonry crews handle everything from tuckpointing a single elevation to rebuilding parapets, replacing lintels, and installing new block walls, dumpster enclosures, and bollards.

Why Masonry Maintenance Matters
-
Stops water intrusion
Sound mortar and sealants keep water out of walls and interiors.
-
Structural integrity
Lintels, parapets, and load-bearing walls need periodic repair to stay safe.

Restored masonry looks like the building was meant to.

“Glen, Duane, Nancy and your team did an awesome job on the Columbia Park project. Brought to light some unsafe conditions with one of the electrical panels and repaired. Addressed the hot water heater and fountain wiring issues which were outside of the original scope of work. The overall work performed was outstanding and within the scheduled time-line despite some unforeseen items that arose with the warehouse demo portion. Thank you!”
