Masonry

Use this guide to see whether your brick, stone, or mortar issue may call for masonry work and how to prepare before contacting a company.

Issues that may need masonry work

Masonry work may be relevant if you see cracked or loose bricks or stones, crumbling mortar joints, or damage to a masonry wall or step. Describe what you see and where it appears when you ask about an inspection.

What to expect during a masonry visit

A company will typically look over the affected area, ask when you noticed the problem, and discuss the work that may be needed. Ask for a clear scope that identifies the areas to be repaired and the materials or methods proposed.

Questions to ask before hiring

Ask how the company will determine the repair area, whether it can match the existing brick, stone, or mortar, and what the work will include. Compare proposals by their stated scope, materials, cleanup, and any warranty terms—not just by the summary description.

Prepare before you contact a company

Note where the damage is and when you first noticed it. Take clear photos from nearby and farther away, and mention any prior repairs or changes you have observed. Ask whether the company handles that specific type of masonry work and serves your address.
