Masonry work around Wacofrom old mortar to new walls
Most of the calls we get in Waco are about older brick with worn mortar joints, a chimney that lets water in, or a yard project they've put off. I come out to every one myself, and we do the same work in Bellmead, Woodway and Hewitt.
The price comes down to how much brick or stone there is, what we find once it's open and the material you pick. The schedule turns on materials and any permit or engineer, and your written estimate lays out the work.

Our masonry services in Wacofor the houses and yards here
Here's the work we do on Waco houses and yards, from mortar repair on older brick to new walls, walks and outdoor kitchens.
- Foundation repair When brick cracks in a stair-step line or doors start sticking, we find out what moved before we patch anything.
- Chimney repair A leaky chimney usually starts at the crown or the top joints, so that's where we look first.
- Tuckpointing Worn joints on older brick get raked out and packed with fresh mortar matched to the old color.
- Brick repair Cracked or flaking bricks get cut out and replaced with ones that match, so the repair doesn't stand out.
- Driveway pavers Pavers set on a packed base give you a driveway that can be lifted and reset instead of torn out.
- Retaining wall construction Sloped yards need walls that hold the soil back and let water through, so we build every one to drain.
- Masonry restoration For older brick and stone that's tired but still sound, we clean, repair and repoint instead of replacing it.
- Fireplace installation New fireplaces in brick or stone, with the firebox and hearth laid out to fit your room.
- Stone veneer installation Stone veneer, a thin facing of real or cast stone, gives columns or a fireplace wall the look of stone without the weight.
- Concrete block walls Block walls for property lines, privacy and garden beds, left plain or finished in stucco or stone.
- Foundation block wall installation Block foundation walls for additions and outbuildings, laid level on the footing and filled solid where the load needs it.
- Outdoor kitchen masonry Grill islands and counters in brick or stone, built to match the house so they look like they were always there.
- Walkway construction Brick, stone or paver walks from the drive to the door, set on a base that keeps them flat.
- Brick wall installation Garden and screen walls in brick, matched to your house's brick and mortar as close as we can get.
- Stone masonry Laid stone for walls, steps, columns and borders, cut and fitted by hand on site.
- Brick pointing If only a few joints are cracked or missing, pointing fixes those spots without redoing the whole wall.
Why Waco calls usfor brick, stone and mortar
You deal with me from the first look to the last walkthrough, and I'll tell you straight what your brick or stone needs and what it doesn't.
One person from estimate to finish
I look at every job myself, write the estimate and run the work on site alongside our crew of masons and helpers.
We'll tell you when it's fine
If your wall or chimney doesn't need work, I'll say so, because I'd rather lose a sale than sell you a repair your house doesn't need.
Done right the first time
I spent years in restaurant kitchens, where a plate that goes out wrong comes right back, and I run brick and stone the same way.
A clean yard when we leave
We pick up mortar, brick dust and scraps before we go, because a job that leaves a mess in your yard isn't finished.
Licensed, insured and in it since 2021
We started this business in 2021, and we're licensed and fully insured on every job we take. Your satisfaction, guaranteed.
From first call to finishedhow a Waco job runs
You make one call, I come out and look, and you get the work in writing before we start, so you know what you're paying for.
Call or send a message
Call (254) 327-1950 or fill out the form and tell us what's going on, whether it's worn joints, a leaky chimney or a new wall.
I look and write it up
I come out, look at the job and ask what you want, then put the work in writing so you know exactly what we'll do.
We line it up and build
Once you say go, we line up materials, pull any permit the city's Inspection Services requires and set the inspections, then prep the site and do the work.
We walk it with you
When the work's done, we walk it with you so you can look at every joint and stone and ask questions before we pack up.
What Waco jobs ask of usbefore we build or repair
A few things about Waco's soil and city rules change how we plan masonry work here.
Soil that swells and shrinks
The city wants a registered engineer to investigate and design any foundation on expansive soil, so we bring one in before a foundation wall goes in.
Retaining walls over four feet
In Waco, a retaining wall taller than 48 inches needs an engineer's design and a Foundation permit, so we settle the height early.
Drive approaches and sidewalks
Pavers on a drive approach or sidewalk in the city's right-of-way need a permit from the city's Engineering Department, so we check that first.
