"I hired Alex Masonry to remove and rebuild a retaining wall that was leaning. After some discussion, I decided to expand the project to include new bluestone caps and to re-do my cracked concrete walkway with pavers. Alex and his crew did an outstanding job. Alex is extremely knowledgeable, personable and a pleasure to work with. His pricing is very reasonable. He and his team did a great job. Hard workers, with great attention to detail. I would highly recommend Alex Masonry!"

"R&M Masonry was quick to reach out to review the work and provide a quote at a fair price. Project was completed shortly after that and covered everything we agreed to. The workers took extra precautions to keep the work area clean and be mindful of our home. Would definitely recommend them for masonry projects."

"I found Arnold's Masonry by reading all of his amazing reviews! What a find! I would give him 10 stars if they were available. I had a vision of what I wanted for my sidewalk and upon the completion of the project, it was exactly what I wanted. Arnold and his crew were patient, kind and worked so hard. Arnold was at the site at all times. I am completely satisfied with his work and would hire him again if I need any further masonry work. He also has a wide variety of services other than masonry that I would also be interested in for future work. Do not hesitate to hire Arnold's Masonry for any of your home construction needs. You will not be disappointed!"

"They did a great job, the only minuses would be that our project was a small one, they did it as a side job. So we had to wait a little longer than we wanted and pay cash as we don't have checks and they didn't take cards. Other than that if we have any additional hardscaping or masonry needed, they will be our first call."

Masonry FAQs, answered by experts

Look for spalling bricks, white salt deposits, or cracked chimney crowns after winter. Hamden experiences intense freeze-thaw cycles that expand small cracks into serious damage. Schedule masonry work between late April and October, when temperatures stay above 40 degrees. Avoid winter repairs, as cold weather prevents mortar from curing properly. Addressing these signs early keeps your home safe and structurally sound before the next freeze hits.

Helpful?

Sealing cracked foundations and repointing joints stops cold drafts, directly improving your home's thermal efficiency during cold winters. Properly waterproofed foundations block moisture, preventing mold growth and musty odors in your basement. Additionally, repairing retaining walls stops soil erosion on hilly properties. Completing necessary masonry work ensures safe chimney venting and protects your property value in the competitive Hamden market.

Helpful?

Foundation repairs disrupt interior waterproofing systems or sump pumps. Rebuilding retaining walls shifts yard grading and impacts underground utilities. If your Hamden home relies on a traditional chimney for heating, repairs alter venting performance and introduce carbon monoxide risks. Always consult a local professional before starting masonry work to safely manage hazardous materials and coordinate necessary heating system inspections.

Helpful?

A major mistake is applying modern, hard cement on soft historic brick, which traps moisture and destroys the brick face. Homeowners also err by scheduling masonry work late in the fall when temperatures drop below freezing, preventing proper curing. Finally, treating white salt deposits as a cosmetic issue ignores serious underlying water infiltration common in the clay-heavy soils across CT.

Helpful?

Always hire licensed contractors with active general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Your pro must understand local permit requirements for structural projects. Choose experts experienced with historic brick types and the specific glacial till soils found throughout CT. A knowledgeable professional will use the correct mortar mixes designed to withstand the region's harsh freeze-thaw cycles, ensuring your masonry work lasts for years to come.
