Lintels, Sills & Structural Repairs

Lintels, Sills & Openings

Lintels, sills and masonry openings around windows and doors help provide structural support and protection to your home or building. Windows, garage openings, dryer vents and chimneys are all examples of penetrations that can deteriorate over time due to exposure to moisture, corrosion, settlement or structural movement, or just age. GRIMCON offers expert lintel replacement, sill repair and modifications to masonry openings on residential, commercial and institutional buildings across Southern Ontario.

Steel lintels are designed to support the weight of masonry above windows and doors. Corrosion can occur overtime on steel lintels. As steel corrodes, it expands and causes pressure on the masonry surrounding it. You may notice cracked brick surrounding the lintel, popped out masonry units, cracked deteriorated mortar joints and/or noticeable movement. Replacing damaged lintels can help avoid unnecessary structural damage.

Window sills and openings can also crack, shift or become damaged over time and cause water to penetrate through your buildings exterior. If water finds its way through your buildings exterior it can cause other problems to your masonry as well as inside of your home. Damaged or shifting sills should be properly repaired or replaced to help ensure structural integrity and weatherproofing.

Apart from repairs, GRIMCON also offers specialist services in masonry opening modifications to suit your renovation, addition and redevelopment requirements.
