Professional Masonry Experience

Tuck Pointing

As a result of aging, mortar between bricks, blocks and stones can erode. Truck pointing is done primary for aesthetic purposes but is also important to maintain the structural integrity.

Truck pointing consists of removing old mortar between the bricks and replacing it with new mortar.

This technique can be done on an entire wall or just parts of it. Mastering this trade requires a skillful eye and years of experience. Our truck pointing job will retain the visual uniformity and beauty of the structure.

Brickwork and Repair

Experience is an absolute must when it comes to brick work. A good bricklaying job will tremendously enhance the appearance of any structure whereas a bad bricklaying job can do just the opposite.

We specialize in bricklaying, creating window and door openings, brick replacement and making both regular, tapered and twisted brick columns.

Cultured Stone

Cultured stone is a man-made stone that is significantly less expensive than real stone, more consistent in color and shape and a lot easier to work with. Experience is an absolute must when it comes to any stone work.

There is also a great deal of precision involved while building up a stone wall. The stone usually comes in 3 to 4 sizes and must be installed like a puzzle.

Working with someone who is not familiar with cultured stone can be a very costly and aesthetically unpleasing.

Veneer Installation and Repair

If the words “cultured stone” conjure up images of a fake that you can spot a mile away, then you need to take a look at modern manufactured veneer stone. Today’s versions look so good that you’ll be hard-pressed to tell them from actual stone.

You can use manufactured stone indoors or out, but exterior applications require special attention to details of waterproofing and flashing.

We also repair any missing veneers that you might be missing. However, if the veneer is too old the chances of finding a matching one decreases significantly.

Fireplaces

Fireplaces are often the focal point of the room. One of the quickest ways to add huge value to any room. There are several different solutions to updating your fireplace.

The most common modification done by us is dressing an existing unit with cultured or natural stone veneer. Your old brick fireplace can easily be turned into a showpiece by adding the look of stone.

We also build new fireplaces and will work with you to design and build the fireplace of your dreams.

Chimney Work

The chimney of a house deteriorates more quickly than any other part due to its direct exposure to harsh weather conditions.

Corrosion of the chimney not only ruins the appearance but may also become a safety hazard.

We specialize in all chimney repairs. We ensure that the work is done in a safe and timely manner while still meeting the highest quality standards.

Concrete Parging

Concrete Parging is the process by which a thin coat of concrete or mortar is applied to exposed exterior brick, stone or concrete block.

Concrete Parging provides structural cohesiveness to the brick or stone, which may be eroding. Paging improves both the overall appearance and structural integrity.
