Local Knowledge

Preserving Coshocton County's Canal-Era Brick and Chimneys

The county seat of Coshocton is home to restored Roscoe Village, a beautifully preserved 19th-century town along the old Ohio & Erie Canal, where brick buildings and period masonry are part of the appeal. That same canal-era and Victorian brickwork shows up in historic downtown Coshocton and in the older homes scattered through West Lafayette, Warsaw, and Conesville. Soft antique brick and lime-based mortar from that era need period-appropriate repair, not modern shortcuts, which is why we take real pride in matching original mortar color, texture, and joint profile so tuckpointing and brick replacement blend right in instead of standing out like an obvious patch.

Ohio's 30 to 65 freeze-thaw cycles a year are hard on this older masonry. Water seeps into hairline cracks and tired mortar joints, freezes, and expands, leaving behind spalling brick faces, crumbling joints, leaning or leaking chimneys, chalky white efflorescence, and failed chimney crowns. On the tall, aged chimneys common to Coshocton County's older homes, that damage usually starts at the crown and the upper courses where wind and weather hit hardest. We fix the cause, not just the symptom, so the repair holds through the next round of Ohio winters.
