Schnell Contractors, Inc. are experts in all aspects of masonry restoration and masonry repair.
Masonry is among the most durable of historic building materials, but it is still susceptible to damage by improper maintenance or prolonged exposure to weather and moisture. If repaired or maintained on a scheduled basis most leaks or deterioration to interior support and anchors can be controlled.

HISTORICAL RESTORATION
