One of the things I have recommended for years to building management companies and owners is to have a professional masonry restoration contractor go through your entire building portfolio and write a report on what should be done to each of the buildings, in a priority fashion, with a generalized time frame estimation on the full list.
We are often called out to a masonry building after the "horse is out of the barn." The building has begun to leak and the damage is now showing on the inside. With a masonry building, sometimes that means that there is damage far more substantial that what can be seen. On a brick building, there is about a 1 inch of air space between the veneer wall and the substrate.

Q: Its only a small crack does it need repairing? A: Yes, Absolutely. When cracks appear in mortar it breaks the bond that holds your masonry together allowing movement. It also allows water in and when water freezes it expands and suddenly your small crack becomes a very large crack resulting in added expense to you for repair and possible resulting in rebuilding of the area.
