Building Restoration Specialties Inc.

BRS was founded in 1986 as a family operated masonry repair company in Denver, Colorado. We have come along way since then, having performed historic restoration and preservation all over our great state as well as in Kansas, California, Nevada, Wyoming, and Montana, just to name a few. We take great pride in our practice of old world techniques while implementing new technologies to provide our customers with uncompromising quality and lasting value. Our team of artisans and craftsmen are constantly trained and tested in every relevant historic masonry trade and receive ongoing education on new and old methods. From carving stone to patching plaster, laying brick to removing stains or stripping paint to recreating decorative patterns, there is no masonry restoration job that we can’t tackle. We also provide new masonry services for commercial and residential customers with detail driven projects and challenging designs. We have developed a reputation in the Denver area as one of the very best in the industry and often consult across the nation. As a result, we are awarded some of the most intricate and significant projects.
