Masons on scaffolding laying and finishing brick on the corner of a Washington DC building

Brick Work Installation

From garden walls and privacy fences to full facades and chimneys, we lay brick to last. Our masons match bond patterns, mortar color, and brick type to your property, so new work sits naturally alongside existing DC brickwork.

Large red brick building in Washington DC with patched brickwork and infilled window openings

Brick Repairs

Cracked, chipped, or loose bricks weaken your walls and invite water in. We cut out damaged units, match replacements to your existing brick in color and texture, and repoint surrounding joints so repairs disappear into the original wall.

Masons repointing mortar joints from scaffolding on a historic Washington DC brick building

Brick Repointing

Over time mortar wears down and lets water into your walls. Repointing rakes out the failed joints and replaces them with fresh mortar, matched for strength and color, restoring weather resistance and giving tired brickwork a clean, refreshed finish.

Tuck pointed mortar joints across the brick side wall of a Washington DC building

Tuck Pointing

Tuck pointing gives brickwork a crisp, refined finish by setting fine contrasting lines into the mortar to imitate perfectly slim joints. It's a specialist decorative technique we use on historic DC facades where appearance matters as much as protection.

Dimpled damp proofing membrane installed against an excavated Washington DC foundation wall

Damp Proofing

Moisture is the root of most masonry damage. We identify whether you're dealing with rising damp, penetrating damp, or condensation, then apply membranes, coatings, and drainage suited to DC's humid summers to keep walls dry, strong, and mold-free.

Stucco

Repointed brick chimney with a new crown and flashing above a Washington DC rooftop

Chimney Repair

A cracked crown or crumbling mortar above the roofline lets water straight into your chimney. We inspect for structural and flue problems, then repair, repoint, or rebuild — addressing crown, flashing, and joints so the whole stack stays weathertight.

Contractor patching a crack in the parged foundation wall of a Washington DC rowhouse

Foundation Repair

Cracked or leaking foundations rarely fix themselves. We trace the real cause — soil movement, water infiltration, or settling — then repair to engineered specifications and waterproof the structure, stopping water intrusion and restoring stability across DC and the Maryland suburbs.

Restored historic rowhouse facade in Washington DC with repointed red brick and a rebuilt brick arch above the window

Historic Brick Restoration

Own a historic DC home? We repoint with matching lime mortar rather than hard modern cement, source replacement brick to match the originals, and use period-appropriate techniques. We also handle HPRB approvals and historic district requirements on your behalf.

Freshly parged foundation wall wrapping the corner of a red brick rowhouse in Washington DC

Parging

Cracked or crumbling parging leaves your foundation exposed to moisture and frost. We clean and prepare the wall, address the moisture problem underneath, then apply a properly mixed coat that protects the masonry rather than just tidying its appearance.

Rebuilt areaway and window well with fresh parged walls outside a Washington DC rowhouse basement window

Window Well Repair

Cracked or leaning areaway walls are a leading cause of basement leaks in DC rowhouses. We rebuild the wall, clear and repair the drain, then waterproof and seal the well so groundwater exits instead of pooling against your foundation.

Restored brick fireplace and hearth with repointed mortar joints in a Washington DC home

Fireplace Masonry

Cracked firebox brick or a crumbling hearth is a safety issue, not just a cosmetic one. We inspect flue integrity and clearances, then rebuild with heat-appropriate brick and mortar, preserving the original decorative detail on historic DC fireplaces.

Masons installing a new steel lintel and rebuilding the brick above a wide opening on a Washington DC rowhouse

Lintel Replacement

Cracked brick above a window or door usually means a rusted steel lintel below. We assess the load it carries, remove the failed lintel, fit a correctly sized replacement, and rebuild the brickwork above the opening to match.

Harnessed masons rebuilding a brick parapet wall on a Washington DC rowhouse rooftop

Parapet Wall Repair

Parapet walls take the worst of DC's weather, and a leaning or crumbling one is a genuine safety risk. We repair, reinforce, and rebuild them, correcting coping, flashing, and drainage details so water stops getting into the structure.

Repaired structural cracks patched across the foundation wall of a Washington DC rowhouse

Structural Crack Repair

Bulging walls and stair-step cracks point to movement, not just surface damage. We diagnose whether settling, moisture, or structural stress is responsible, then repair to engineering guidance so stability is genuinely restored across DC and the Maryland suburbs.
