Brick, block and stone work in Waller
We're based in Tacoma and work across the cities around it in Pierce County and south King County, Waller included. What a job costs mostly turns on its size, how much old work has to come out first and how easy the spot is to reach, and the schedule turns on whether a permit is needed. Your written estimate spells out what's included.
Pierce County's residential design rules put frost depth at 12 inches below ground in low-land areas and deeper at higher elevations, so we dig footings and bases for retaining walls, block walls and walkways to the depth your spot calls for. We do the same work in Midland, Parkland and South Hill.
Masonry services we bring to Waller
Get a quoteFoundation repair
We repair cracked, bowed or crumbling foundation walls before water and settling make things worse. Call when a crack keeps widening or a wall starts to lean.
Chimney repair
If bricks are flaking, the cap is cracked or mortar is washing out of the joints, we rebuild what's failing up top so water stops getting in.
Tuckpointing
Tuckpointing means grinding out worn mortar and packing in fresh mortar that matches the old color and line. It's time when joints turn sandy, recessed or open.
Brick repair
Cracked, loose or flaking bricks get cut out and replaced with brick matched for size and color, so the patch doesn't stand out from across the street.
Driveway pavers
A paver driveway starts with a dug-out, compacted base, which is what keeps the pavers from sinking or rocking under a car. It's a good swap for cracked concrete.
Retaining wall construction
Where a slope is pushing soil toward your yard, we build block or stone retaining walls with drainage behind them so water doesn't push them over.
Masonry restoration
For older brick and stone that's worn, stained or patched badly, we repair, repoint and clean it so it looks like it belongs on the house again.
Fireplace installation
We build masonry fireplaces and surrounds in brick or stone, from the firebox to the hearth, laid out so the whole thing suits the room it sits in.
Stone veneer installation
Stone veneer gives a wall, foundation skirt or chimney a stone face. We set it over a backing and moisture barrier so water drains instead of soaking in.
Concrete block walls
Need a garden wall, privacy wall or fence base? We build concrete block walls on solid footings, left plain or faced with brick or stone veneer.
Foundation block wall installation
For additions, garages and crawlspaces, we lay concrete block foundation walls on poured footings, set to the depth and layout your plans call for.
Outdoor kitchen masonry
We build the grill island, counter base and bar for a backyard kitchen in block, brick or stone, set on a solid slab that can carry the weight.
Walkway construction
If your path to the door is muddy, cracked or heaving, we build a new walkway in brick, pavers, stone or concrete over a packed base.
Brick wall installation
We lay new brick garden walls, screen walls and planters, picking the brick pattern and mortar color to suit your house rather than fight it.
Stone masonry
Natural stone steps, walls, columns and fire pits, laid by hand. It's slower work than block, and worth it when you want an old, settled look.
Brick pointing
When only a few joints are cracked or missing mortar, pointing fills and shapes those joints with fresh mortar, a smaller job than full tuckpointing.
