Schaumburg grew rapidly during the 1970s through 1990s, producing thousands of residential homes and one of the largest commercial districts in the Chicago suburbs.

Your Schaumburg Masonry Experts
Schaumburg grew rapidly during the 1970s through 1990s, producing thousands of residential homes and one of the largest commercial districts in the Chicago suburbs. Built with machine-pressed brick and stone veneer rather than the older Chicago common brick found on the North Shore, Schaumburg's masonry is now entering its first major maintenance cycle.
Schaumburg homeowners are often surprised to learn that their 35-45 year old homes need masonry attention. Builder-grade mortar applied during rapid construction does not last as long as premium installations, and stone veneer from the 1980s is beginning to show adhesion failures. The open prairie exposure west of Chicago adds sustained wind stress that accelerates mortar erosion. Catching these issues at the first maintenance cycle costs a fraction of waiting for water damage to reach the wall structure.
When you call Delta Masonry, you're calling your neighbors. We live here, we work here, and we take pride in preserving Schaumburg's homes and buildings for the next generation.

Common Masonry Problems in Schaumburg
Builder-grade thin mortar joints failing at 30-40 years
Many Schaumburg homes built during the 1970s-1990s construction boom used builder-grade mortar applied in thin joints to speed construction. These joints are now reaching their failure threshold, with erosion visible on north and west-facing walls first.
Stone veneer detachment on 1980s-1990s homes
Stone veneer installations from the 1980s and early 1990s used adhesives and substrates that have degraded over time. Stones loosen, gaps open between the veneer and the wall, and water infiltration behind the veneer causes hidden damage to the wall sheathing.
Commercial strip mall facade deterioration
Schaumburg's extensive commercial district includes hundreds of strip malls and retail buildings from the 1970s-1990s. Many have deferred masonry maintenance, with failing mortar, cracked lintels, and loose stone veneer creating safety and code compliance concerns.
Featured Schaumburg Project
Reattachment and replacement of loosened manufactured stone veneer on the front facade of a 1985 colonial, including substrate repair and waterproof membrane installation behind the veneer.
