Built in 1893, the Chicago Athletic Association’s façade had decades of wear—until RestoreWorks brought it back to life. Restorative cleaning techniques (like gentle misting and hand-scrubbing) were used to remove over 100 years' worth of dirt and contaminants. 🔎 See more about how we restored this historic landmark: https://bit.ly/40fnZ2f #MasonryRestoration #HistoricPreservation #Chicago

This wall shows what de-icing salts can do to brick (and why paint isn't always the solution) 🧱🖌️ De-icing salts pull moisture into masonry. This leads to white salt stains (efflorescence) and crumbling brick (spalling) over time. While paint might seem like a quick fix, it often traps moisture and makes the damage worse. If you see damage like this, it’s a sign to act before spring brings more moisture. #MasonryRestoration #BuildingPreservation #PropertyManagement
