We Got to the Root of the Problem

In the prior Green Blog posts I have been sharing the Activities of Correcting the Damage from a Tree that had been growing in a StLouis Brick Building- and Getting to the Root of the Problem.  Well today we removed the Invasive Tree Root, Tuck-pointed the Brick Wall and then added a layer of Stucco to help add a layer of Rigidity and create a Uniform Look to the Brick Wall.
