Toronto has some of the oldest brick housing stock in the country. Victorian and Edwardian semis and detached homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s line the streets of the old city, many with solid brick walls and soft, lime-based mortar.
The Annex, Leslieville, Riverdale, Roncesvalles, High Park and more
Masonry in Toronto →Much of North York was built after the Second World War, with streets of brick bungalows, side-splits and two-storey homes from the 1950s and 1960s. Many of them are now 60 or 70 years old, and their chimneys, front steps and mortar joints are showing it.
Willowdale, Don Mills, Bayview Village, York Mills, Armour Heights and more
Masonry in North York →Scarborough grew quickly from the 1950s through the 1970s, and much of it is brick bungalows, back-splits and semis from that era. Those homes are solidly built, but half a century of Ontario winters wears down chimneys, steps and the masonry closest to the ground.
Agincourt, Birch Cliff, Cliffside, Guildwood, Malvern and more
Masonry in Scarborough →Etobicoke mixes older lakeshore neighbourhoods, pre-war homes with stone and brick detailing in areas like the Kingsway, and large post-war suburbs. That variety means the masonry ranges from century-old brick to newer stone veneer.
The Kingsway, Mimico, New Toronto, Long Branch, Islington Village and more
Masonry in Etobicoke →Most homes in Vaughan were built from the 1980s onward, often with brick, natural or manufactured stone, precast details and stucco on the same facade. Newer does not mean maintenance-free: sills, caps, stone veneer and stucco all need attention as a house ages.
Woodbridge, Maple, Kleinburg, Thornhill, Concord and more
Masonry in Vaughan →Mississauga has older village cores like Port Credit and Streetsville, and large suburbs built from the 1970s through the 2000s. Much of that suburban housing is now 25 to 50 years old, which is when chimneys, steps and brick veneer start needing work.
Port Credit, Streetsville, Erin Mills, Meadowvale, Clarkson and more
