Masonry waterproofing in Owasso, OK
Tulsa and Rogers County · ZIP 74055 · Published pricing · Call (918) 362-4398
Owasso was a small town in 1990 and a city of forty thousand by 2020, which means most of its brick went up in a single twenty five year rush. Bailey Ranch, Preston Lakes and Stone Canyon are the pattern: two story brick veneer on a slab, stone accents on the front, builder grade flashing, and weep holes that are there on paper. Those houses are now aging into their first joint repairs all at once.
The soil north of the city is the same shrink swell clay as everywhere else in the metro, but the drainage is worse. Elm Creek and Bird Creek keep the low lots wet late into spring, and the wall that faces the creek side is the one that gets the damp band at the slab. Haikey Creek Masonry Waterproofing starts every Owasso job with a hose test on that wall, because half the time the answer is a weep hole and flashing retrofit at $1,500 to $6,000 and not more sealer.
The other Owasso regular is the stone front. Manufactured stone set over a foam backed wrap, with no drainage plane, on the front of a house that faces southwest. The stone is fine, the joints between the stones are open, and the sheathing behind is wet. We repoint those joints, seal the stone, and if the sheathing is soft we tell you before we cover it up.
Weep holes that got mortared shut
Owasso houses from the 2000s often have weep holes that were put in correctly and then mortared shut by a painter, a pest control tech, or a well meaning owner who did not know what the gaps were for. Before you seal anything, count the open vertical joints along the bottom course. If there are none, the wall cannot drain, and any sealer job is a waste of money until that is fixed.

Owasso owners ask
- How much does brick sealing cost in Owasso?
- A typical two story Owasso brick veneer house is $1,500 to $3,500 for a whole house silane and siloxane repellent. Add $1,200 to $5,500 if the joints on the weather side need repointing first, which on a 2000s house is often only the west and south walls.
- The bottom of my brick stays dark after rain. Is that normal?
- No. A bottom course that stays wet a day longer than the rest of the wall means water is sitting in the cavity because it cannot drain. That is a weep hole and flashing problem at $1,500 to $6,000, and we confirm it with a hose test before anyone quotes a fix.
- Can you fix the cracked mortar between the stones on my front?
- Yes. Open joints in a stone front are repointed at the same $8 to $20 per square foot as brick, then the stone is sealed. We check the sheathing behind the stone while the joints are open.
- Are you able to work on houses in Rogers County?
- Yes. Owasso straddles the county line and we cover both sides, along with Collinsville and the acreages out toward Claremore.
- How soon can you come out to Owasso?
- Owasso is about half an hour from Broken Arrow, so most inspections are within the week, and same week when water is coming in.
