VIP Restoration has completed many significant historic restoration projects in Northeast Ohio. Our services on these projects have included restoration cleaning of masonry and wood surfaces, replacement of historic mortars, masonry restoration, terra cotta replacement and patching, and stucco repair. We are specialists in the repair of multi-wythe, cavity wall, and collar joint masonry wall construction. We are also expert in the restoration of vertical and horizontal concrete. Working with architects and engineers, our journeymen and the office support staff are able to investigate, detect the causes of deterioration, determine proper repair procedures, and reconstruct masonry and concrete surfaces.
More Information History is something that happens every day.
Past construction techniques utilized multi-wythe brick construction, masonry claddings such as terra cotta on steel frame or load bearing masonry and brick cavity wall construction. Today's building technologies enable the use of glass curtain walls, EIFS systems, precast panels, and other cladding methods. We are able to work with owners and their architects and engineers to determine locations of moisture infiltration and the causes of veneer failures. Our niche within the construction industry is both complex and varied. Much of what we know we learned by experience.
