What owners worry about first
This is one of the highest-value items on a typical notice. Small scope, and it prevents the expensive version of the same problem.
Did this come off a violation notice?
Then read the violation page instead. It covers what the inspector was looking at, what it costs you to wait, and what the department needs to see before the item closes.
Window sills and projecting courses →Usually done at the same time
The joints get ground out and repointed to match, so the wall stops shedding mortar and the inspector stops writing it up.
Cracked and missing brick swapped for units that match yours, so the repair disappears instead of announcing itself.
The wall above your roof line made solid again, so nothing is loose over the sidewalk and water stops entering the top of the building.
The most weather-beaten masonry you own, rebuilt, capped and made watertight so it stops feeding damage into the rest of the wall.
Rusting steel above your windows replaced before it lifts the brick any further. This one gets worse and more expensive every year you wait.
The details that make a Chicago greystone or two-flat worth what it is worth, stabilised and restored instead of stripped off.
