Vancouver’s coastal climate creates some of the toughest conditions for masonry in Canada. With roughly 166 rainy days each year and consistently high humidity, brick walls and other installations are constantly exposed to moisture. When winter temperatures occasionally drop below freezing, the trapped water inside the bricks and mortar expands, leading to cracking and spalling that worsens with repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Compared to drier regions where masonry can last decades with little maintenance, Vancouver installations require regular inspections and preventative repairs. Persistent rain, periodic frost, coastal salt air, and moss or lichen growth all accelerate wear, meaning even well-constructed chimneys can begin to deteriorate within 15 to 20 years.
At Point Grey Masonry, we’ve specialized in repairing, maintaining, and constructing brick projects in Vancouver. We use moisture-resistant mortar mixes and professional waterproofing methods designed specifically for the Lower Mainland’s wet climate, helping ensure repairs that are built to last: not just look good temporarily.
