Brick Masonry in Meriden

Brick Masonry in Connecticut

Brick masonry covers building and repairing anything made of brick: chimneys, steps, walls, patios, veneer, and the foundations of older Meriden homes. Most calls involve repointing (grinding out failed mortar and replacing it), rebuilding a leaning chimney, or fixing spalled brick where water has pushed the faces off.

What to look for

Ask whether the crew matches mortar to the existing brick. Older bricks need a softer, lime-rich mix, and hard modern Portland mortar can crack them. Look for proof of insurance, a Connecticut home improvement registration, and photos of finished work that is similar to yours. A good quote names the brick, mortar type, and how much is being removed or replaced, and it covers flashing and water control, since moisture is behind most failures.

Common questions about brick masonry

How much does brick repointing cost?
Repointing commonly runs about $8 to $25 per square foot, depending on height, access, and mortar condition. Small repairs often have a minimum charge of a few hundred dollars. Chimney rebuilds and full wall work cost considerably more, so get written quotes.
How often does brick need repointing?
Mortar joints typically last 25 to 50 years. Check for crumbling or recessed joints, gaps, or water stains inside. Fixing them early is far cheaper than replacing damaged brick.
What should I expect during a brick repair job?
The crew removes damaged mortar or brick, cleans the joints, and applies new mortar in layers. Expect dust and scaffolding, and weather can cause delays. Fresh mortar needs days to cure, and color may take weeks to blend in.
How can I judge a mason's quality?
Check completed jobs for even joints, matching color, and straight courses. Ask about mortar type, and confirm insurance and registration. Be wary of anyone who proposes covering damaged brick with sealant or hard cement instead of fixing the source of the problem.
