Brick Masonry in New Britain

Brick Masonry in Connecticut

Brick masonry covers laying new brick, rebuilding failing walls and chimneys, repointing mortar joints, and replacing cracked or spalled units. In New Britain, where many homes and storefronts are older brick, most calls involve repair: crumbling mortar, leaning chimney stacks, water getting behind a veneer, or steps and retaining walls shifted by freeze and thaw.

What to look for

Ask whether the contractor matches mortar to the existing brick. Hard modern Portland-heavy mortar can damage soft historic brick. Look for a written scope that states joint depth, how many square feet or linear feet are included, and how debris and scaffolding are handled. Confirm Connecticut licensing and insurance, and ask to see recent work similar to yours, not only new construction.

Common questions about brick masonry

How much does brick masonry repair cost?
Repointing typically runs from about $5 to $25 per square foot depending on joint condition and access. Chimney rebuilds often cost several thousand dollars, and small repairs usually have a minimum charge. Get at least two written quotes.
How often does brick need repointing?
Mortar joints commonly last 25 to 50 years. Repoint sooner if joints are recessed, crumbling, or letting water in. Brick itself can last a century or more.
What should I expect during a brick repair job?
Expect an inspection, a written scope, mortar color and type matching, grinding out old joints, and repointing in sections. Dust and scaffolding are normal. Small jobs often finish in a few days, weather permitting.
How can I judge the quality of masonry work?
Check that joints are uniform and fully filled, mortar color blends with the original, and brick courses stay level. Look at older jobs by the same contractor to see how the work has weathered.
