Residential Brownstone Building
Allentown, PA
Softer stone like the brownstone shown above (as well as Wissahickon Schist & other sedimentary rocks) can show signs of extreme deterioration which usually has something to do with a persistent water issue along with the kind of mortar that surrounds the masonry, but also because the stone was not laid correctly or is in fact interior. In all these situations, lime based repair mortar is the best material for limiting future problems.
