Why Reformity
Why commercial masonry & restoration with Reformity.
Deteriorating masonry is more than cosmetic — failing mortar joints, spalling brick, and unstable parapets let water into the envelope and can trigger safety orders. We deliver commercial repointing, brick and stone replacement, lintel repair, parapet and chimney rebuilds, and waterproofing across Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, and the GTA. Restoring the envelope protects interiors, extends building life, and keeps your property compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers.
Telltale signs include crumbling or recessed mortar joints, cracked or spalling brick, efflorescence, water stains on interior walls, and loose units. Where the issue is limited to mortar, repointing seals the wall. Where brick, stone, lintels, or parapets have failed, those elements need replacement or rebuilding. We provide a condition assessment that distinguishes routine maintenance from urgent structural work so you can prioritize.
Yes. Loose masonry, unstable parapets, and falling-debris risks are common subjects of municipal orders. We can inspect the cited deficiency, scope the corrective work, prioritize it, and provide the documentation you need to demonstrate compliance. For urgent overhead hazards we can also arrange protective measures while the permanent repair is scheduled.
Matching is a core part of the work. We match mortar color, joint profile, and texture, and source replacement brick and stone as close as possible to the original. On older and heritage buildings we are careful to use compatible, breathable mortar rather than a hard modern mix that can damage soft historic brick. The goal is a repair that disappears into the facade.
Yes. We set up safe, contained access — swing stages, scaffolding, or boom lifts as appropriate — protect entrances and walkways from debris, and control dust. Where work is over an entrance or busy area we can schedule it for off-hours or phase it so tenants and the public stay safe and access stays open throughout the project.
Freeze-thaw cycling, water infiltration through failed joints and flashing, rusting steel lintels that expand and crack masonry, and incompatible past repairs are the usual causes. We do not just patch the symptom — we correct water entry with proper repointing, flashing, and sealing, replace failed structural elements, and use compatible materials so the same failure does not return. Pairing the repair with a maintenance plan further extends envelope life.
