Historic Landmark and Perservation At EYR Services, we specialize in landmark preservation and historic restoration, with a dedicated focus on expert masonry and concrete work. We don’t just repair old structures — we safeguard the stories, craftsmanship, and architectural character that define them. Our team brings deep technical knowledge of traditional building methods together with modern engineering standards, allowing us to restore aging facades, stabilize historic foundations, and revive intricate masonry details with precision and respect for original materials. Whether we’re rehabilitating century‑old brickwork, repairing weathered stone, or reconstructing structural concrete elements, every project is approached with the same commitment: to extend the life of historic properties while maintaining their authenticity. From iconic public landmarks to privately owned heritage buildings, we help ensure that these structures continue to stand strong for future generations, looking as remarkable as the day they were built.
At EYR Services, terra‑cotta restoration is one of our signature capabilities. Historic terra‑cotta is both beautiful and fragile — it weathers, cracks, spalls, and loses glaze over time. Our team brings deep technical knowledge and hands‑on craftsmanship to restore these architectural elements with precision and authenticity.
Full Documentation & Assessment We survey existing terra‑cotta units, identify failures, and document profiles, dimensions, and ornamentation to ensure accurate reconstruction.
Careful Dismantling Damaged or unstable parapet sections are removed piece by piece to protect salvageable units and prevent further deterioration.
Structural Rebuild We reconstruct the parapet’s backing system — including concrete, masonry, or steel supports — to meet modern safety standards while maintaining historic proportions.
Unit Restoration & Replication Original terra‑cotta pieces are repaired when possible. When replacement is required, we produce custom replicas that match the original color, glaze, and texture.
Anchoring & Waterproofing New stainless‑steel anchorage systems and modern waterproofing membranes are installed to prevent future moisture intrusion and corrosion.
Reinstallation & Finishing Restored and replicated units are set in place with precise alignment, ensuring the parapet retains its historic character and visual continuity.
New Construction
Ground‑Up Masonry Construction Brick, block, and stone installations built to modern codes with clean lines, durable materials, and long‑lasting performance.
Masonry replacement is one of the core services at EYR Services, performed with the precision and craftsmanship required to maintain both structural integrity and architectural character. Whether the issue is deterioration, water damage, structural failure, or long‑term weathering, we remove compromised masonry and replace it with materials that match the original construction in appearance, strength, and performance.
