Masonry Service FAQ

How do I know if my brick or stone needs repair?
Warning signs include cracks, loose or bulging sections, missing mortar, flaking or spalling brick, water stains, and drafts or moisture on interior walls near masonry surfaces.

Can you match my existing brick or stone?
In most cases yes. We source compatible brick or stone and adjust the mortar colour and joint profile so repairs blend as closely as possible with your existing façade.

What is repointing and why is it important?
Repointing is the process of removing deteriorated mortar between bricks or stones and replacing it with new mortar, which restores strength and helps prevent water from penetrating and damaging the structure.

Do you repair and rebuild chimneys?
Yes. We repair cracks, replace damaged bricks or stones, rebuild unsafe chimneys, install or repair concrete caps, and address water infiltration around chimney bases.

Can you fix bulging brick walls (ventre de bœuf)?
Yes. We perform structural masonry repairs, including reinforcing or rebuilding bulging walls, replacing failed lintels, and correcting the underlying structural or water issues causing the deformation.

Do you work on retaining walls, steps, and outdoor masonry?
Yes. We build and repair stone and brick retaining walls, exterior steps, walkways, patios, and other outdoor masonry features designed to handle Québec’s freeze–thaw cycles.

Process & Pricing FAQ

What is your process from first contact to project completion?
We start with a conversation about your project, then schedule a site visit, provide a written estimate, obtain any required permits, complete the work according to code, and finish with a walkthrough to review the results with you.

How do you price masonry projects?
Pricing depends on access, height, complexity, materials, and the condition of existing masonry. After inspecting the site, we give you a clear, itemized quote so you know exactly what is included.

Do you require a deposit?
Most projects require a deposit to secure your place in our schedule, with the remaining balance due according to agreed milestones or at completion, as outlined in your estimate.

Can you help me prioritize work if I have a limited budget?
Yes. We can separate urgent safety or water‑related issues from cosmetic work and build a phased plan that fits your budget and timeline.

Do you offer a warranty on your work?
We stand behind our workmanship and offer a warranty on our masonry services. The specific coverage and duration depend on the type of project and are explained in your quote.
