Understanding Mailbox Repairs

When Accidents Happen

Car accidents can range from minor bumps to major hits. If your mailbox has been caught in the crossfire, let your insurance company know that Omega Masonry has nearly 20 years of experience in repairing mailboxes just like yours.

First, we’ll assess how many of the original bricks can be saved. If fewer than 20% are reusable, we might recommend starting fresh with new materials. Today’s bricks and mortar are made to last longer and better protect your metal mailbox from moisture, meaning fewer repairs down the road.

If we can save 20% or more of the bricks (even partial ones), we’ll focus on finding replacement bricks that match the original as closely as possible in both color and style. Matching the era of your original bricks is crucial because bricks with different porosity levels need different types of mortar.

Leaning or Crumbling Mailboxes

Mailboxes can also start to lean or crumble over time, which is a sign that repairs are needed. This kind of repair requires understanding what caused the problem in the first place. Sometimes it’s just that the mortar has aged and needed attention sooner. Other times, it could be a problem with drainage or the foundation.

With nearly two decades of experience, Omega Masonry knows how to get to the bottom of these issues and fix them properly.

Upgrading Your Mailbox

Turning a Bad Situation into an Opportunity

If your mailbox has been damaged, it might be a good time to consider some upgrades. Adding features like planters, security drop boxes, rust-resistant mail chutes, decorative stone toppers, or address plaques can enhance both the function and look of your mailbox.

Omega Masonry is here to make your curbside mailbox not just a necessity, but a feature you can be proud of.
