Expert brick, stone, and concrete restoration for the Bronx's diverse building stock -- from pre-war apartment buildings to commercial and institutional properties.
The Bronx contains a substantial inventory of pre-war and mid-century masonry construction -- brick apartment buildings, stone-clad institutions, and reinforced concrete commercial structures. Graciano Corporation provides the full range of masonry and concrete restoration services needed to maintain and repair these buildings over time.
Much of the Bronx's residential building stock was constructed between 1900 and 1960, with brick and mortar construction that is now at an age where ongoing maintenance is critical. Mortar joints deteriorate, brick faces spall after decades of freeze-thaw exposure, and concrete balconies and cornices show signs of reinforcement corrosion. These are normal conditions for buildings of this age -- and they respond well to skilled restoration work when addressed before they become larger structural problems.
Buildings in the Bronx taller than six stories are subject to New York City's Facade Inspection Safety Program. FISP inspections frequently cite deteriorated mortar joints, spalled concrete on balconies, and failing caulking as unsafe or potentially unsafe conditions. Graciano's team is experienced in executing the repair work required to clear these findings and complete the FISP cycle.
Committed to delivering the finest craftsmanship at competitive prices. Whether it's a landmark restoration, commercial project, or residential repair, Graciano is ready to help.
