Steel lintels above garage doors, windows, and entryways commonly rust, expand, and crack the surrounding brickwork in older Northwest Indiana homes. We specialize in professional lintel replacement, tuckpointing, and brick repair for homes across Whiting, Hammond, Munster, Highland, Griffith, and surrounding cities.
If you see cracked brick, sagging masonry, or rust stains above openings in your home, the steel support inside the wall is likely failing. Proper lintel replacement stops the damage and restores the structure before it becomes a larger and more expensive problem.
Signs Your Lintel Is Failing
- Cracked brick above garage doors or windows
- Bulging or sagging brickwork
- Rust stains bleeding through mortar joints
- Loose or falling bricks
- Mortar joints splitting apart near openings
These are common in brick homes throughout Northwest Indiana due to moisture, freeze-thaw cycles, and aging steel supports.
