Materials and Longevity
Material selection matters for aesthetics and lifespan. We work with multiple masonry materials and will recommend the right choice based on load requirements, exposure to freeze/thaw cycles, and the desired look. Proper mortar formulation and joint profile are as important as the units themselves; incorrect mortar can accelerate deterioration. Our crews use proven mixes and installation techniques to limit future maintenance needs.
How Projects Are Handled
Work begins with an on-site assessment to identify root causes — for example, whether water, settlement or prior repairs are the source of visible damage. Estimates outline scope, materials, timeline and safety measures. On-site supervision ensures work complies with drawings and local code. We keep job sites organized, protect adjacent finishes, and complete a final walk-through with the property owner or manager.
Quality Control and Safety
Quality control includes substrate inspection, moisture assessment, proper anchoring and consistent joint tooling. Safety measures such as fall protection, secure scaffolding and dust control are used where applicable. Documentation of key stages and warranty terms are provided with each completed job.
Representative Projects
Recent work includes brick veneer installation for residential façades, stone entryways for commercial storefronts, and repointing historic masonry to extend service life. Each project required coordination with other trades and attention to drainage and flashing details to prevent recurring water issues.

Why Property Owners Choose Us
Clients value clear estimates, reliable scheduling and workmanship that stands up to Minnesota weather. We prioritize durable repairs over quick fixes so that your building requires less frequent intervention. When specialized tools or subcontractors are needed — for example, for structural repairs or historic restoration — we coordinate certified partners and oversee the work.
Pricing and Estimates
Estimates are based on measured quantities, material selection and access conditions. For certain repairs we provide phased options so owners can prioritize urgent items and schedule cosmetic work later. Estimates include a written scope of work, exclusions and a projected timeline.
Maintenance Recommendations
Routine inspection of mortar joints, flashing, and capstones reduces the chance of severe failures. Prompt repointing of deteriorated joints, proper waterproofing at grade, and managing vegetation near walls will extend service life and lower long-term cost.
