Masonry Restoration
Advance Construction is proud to have worked on many significant historic restoration projects in the Tri State area. Working with architects, and engineers, Advance can often contribute knowledge and expertise from a hands on perspective. Projects include masonry tuck pointing for stone and brick along with replacements and new construction. Period restoration requires the ability to adapt traditional lime mortars and other formulations for historic masonry preservation.
