"I had some major work done on my house this year and I went back to someone I trusted: Eddie, Manny and Mike from E&B Masonry. They did a porch project for me in 2018 and it was great. I used them again. They gave me a good price, but I also knew that they would get the job done right. They included me on each decision and checked with me through out the project. I had roofing repairs on my parapet wall where the previous owner had roofed over the limestone causing water building up. During this they found damaged bricks. They took pictures and video to show me what they needed to do. Then they did work on the outside wall where someone else I hired failed to do the tuckpointing. Finally, they installed all new concrete sidewalks from front to back and side to side. This included stairs going down to the basement. They had to pitch the concrete in creative ways and added a new drain to handle additional water. It looks fantastic. I am hiring them to do some additional jobs as well."

Throughout the entire process, the communication was excellent. I was kept updated with all questions answered. They were professional, punctual and left the work area clean. I highly recommend them for any masonry or chimney work!"

"My experience with 83 Masonry was EXCELLENT! We hired them to tuck-point and partially rebuild our two chimneys. They started the project on time and showed up everyday ahead of time. We have new roof and AC, so before they started any work, they have protected the roof and build protection canopy over the AC to make sure nothing would get damaged. Very professional, knowledgeable, punctual and safe. Not only were the chimneys fixed, they improved the look of the house. We are EXTREMELY happy with the craftsmanship and we would recommend them for any type of masonry work."

"Scott was wonderful from start to finish. He came out and provided an estimate and was ready to start once we gave him the green light. He handled all correspondence with the Village of Frankfort to obtain the work permit and shared every step of the process. He was extremely knowledgeable and was able to explain the reason for the split from the brick work and drywall. Upon one visual inspection, he was able to determine the materials that would match. While I was nervous about the possibility of the materials not matching, honestly... you cannot tell the rework was not included in the original build. He and his team did a beautiful job with the reconstruction! Greatly appreciated!"

"We hired Edmar to rebuild our parapet on our brick multi-family house during the summer of 2020, and they did an outstanding job! The brickwork looks exceptional and I can tell they really pay attention to detail. Their proposal for the project was the most professional and detailed one we received, and if I had any questions they were very quick to respond. If we have any masonry needs in the future, we will definitely be giving Edmar a call. We also hired them to install new windows, and they did a great job with those as well - they installed them quickly and professionally."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

In Chicago, homeowners often encounter unexpected costs during masonry repair due to weather protection measures, permit requirements, and delays from city inspections. Working on older properties can reveal issues like deteriorating foundations, hidden moisture damage, or hazardous materials that require specialized handling. Fluctuations in the availability of specific bricks or stone veneer for matching historic homes can also lead to additional expenses and project adjustments.

Helpful?

In Chicago, you’ll find several types of contractors for masonry work, including brick masons for brick walls and restoration, stone masons for stone veneer and patios, tuckpointing specialists for mortar repair, chimney contractors for fireplace and flue maintenance, and historical restoration experts for preserving older buildings. Some general contractors also coordinate masonry repair as part of larger home improvement projects, ensuring all work meets local building codes.

Helpful?

In Chicago, a frequent mistake is starting masonry projects without accounting for seasonal weather, which can delay work or affect quality. Homeowners sometimes skip thorough contractor vetting, overlooking experience with local codes or historical restoration. Neglecting to address underlying structural issues or failing to secure necessary permits can lead to costly rework. Always discuss your project’s specifics and timeline with your masonry contractor to avoid these pitfalls.

Helpful?

Combining masonry work with other home upgrades in Chicago can streamline your project and reduce disruption. For example, scheduling tuckpointing alongside roof or window replacement allows shared use of scaffolding and minimizes repeated setup. Pairing foundation repairs with basement waterproofing or insulation upgrades not only improves energy efficiency but can also help you coordinate inspections and reduce labor overlap, making your renovation process smoother and more efficient.

Helpful?

The timeline for masonry work in Chicago varies by project scope—simple repairs may take a few days, while larger jobs like brick restoration or chimney rebuilding can extend over several weeks. Weather conditions, especially in spring and fall, often impact scheduling. Permit processing and material lead times can also add days, so it’s wise to plan ahead and communicate closely with your masonry contractor about expected timelines.
