"We had an attached screened-in porch that was sinking.Acculevel came in and detailed every aspect of the repair project and then followed thru to the most minuet detail. Excellent work and very detail oriented. Friendly and cooperative service team that completed the work. This seemed like what was going to be a complicated job, using augered jacks, concrete removal, and replacing trex floor. ...In a nutshell, they made what seemed hard..very manageableand 100% solved.Excellent service, excellant price......Terry M."

"He and his crew did a demo for me and they cleaned it all up and hauled it away, raked the dirt and promised to bring me more dirt soon so I can plant grass in this spot in my backyard. They repaired my fence and added privacy panels to it with a new privacy gate. They did a very professional job. I would recommend them to anyone wanting a professional job at a reasonable price."

"David gave me what I thought was a fair price for the work to be done. He asked for 1/2 up front. As a previous small business owner I did not feel this was unreasonable so I paid him 500.00. He estimated the work would take 3 to four days and I thought the same. After several no shows the "mason" showed up. The first clue was he came in a car. According to my wife he was here 2 hours and left, came back for another 2 hours the next day and left again. He said nothing to my wife about leaving or when he would be back. David called a day later to ask about coming out to look over the job and get the rest of the other 500.00. I said he isn't finished and he's only been here 4 hours. So then I looked up the prevailing wage in IL for a mason and found out it is 28.50 an hour. The next day the guy comes back for another 3 hours. David came to look at the work and I walked him around and showed him all of the places that had not been done. So the guy comes back again for about an hour. All told it was 8 hours work, nothing to write home about but it was agreed up front that I wasn't looking for an exposed brick look. I need it tuck pointed well enough so that I could drylock and paint the exposed brick. I will say this was done in the end. The worker left a mess that I and my wife had to clean up, I pointed this out to David as well. I told him I felt he was overly paid for the amount of work preformed and that was the end of it. It's really to bad. It's difficult to get contractors to do small jobs and I had plenty for him to do. I'm not unhappy, just would not hire again"

"Excellent quality of work and customer care. Great value offered and very satisfied with the end result. We addressed an 80 foot piece of fence with river rock (8 tons) and it looks great. They also built us a patio with brick pavers. It looks great as well. Would hire again and recommend to anyone looking for professional landscaping and hardscaping."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Homes built before 1960 in Mattoon are excellent candidates for masonry work, as original lime mortar typically exceeds its lifespan after fifty years. Look for visible warning signs like white salt stains, flaking brick faces, or mortar joints recessed more than a quarter-inch deep. If your older property features a masonry chimney without documented maintenance in the last two decades, schedule a professional inspection immediately.

Helpful?

Start with a thorough post-winter inspection in April to spot new flaking bricks or mortar cracks caused by harsh IL freeze-thaw cycles. Follow up in early June to check for white salt stains left by spring rains. Finally, conduct a pre-winter check in September to identify open joints. Schedule necessary masonry work immediately during this late summer window before freezing temperatures halt proper mortar curing.

Helpful?

Look for damage isolated to the brick, stone, or mortar itself. White salt deposits, crumbling mortar, and flaking brick faces from Mattoon freeze-thaw cycles strongly indicate you need masonry work. Conversely, water pooling at interior basement walls or severely bowing foundations often point to drainage or structural issues caused by heavy local clay soils. Consult a structural specialist first for any major foundation movement.

Helpful?

Chimneys take the full brunt of Mattoon weather and represent the highest priority for masonry work. Concrete block or brick foundation walls also require frequent attention due to pressure and moisture from heavy local clay soils. Additionally, south-facing and west-facing exterior brick veneers experience intense thermal expansion, making them highly vulnerable to crumbling mortar. Inspect your front steps and retaining walls regularly for frost heaving.

Helpful?

Begin by addressing any underlying drainage or grading issues to prevent premature failure of your new repairs. Next, verify local permit requirements with the city for structural changes, though cosmetic repointing rarely requires one. Because summer offers the ideal mortar curing temperatures in IL, book a licensed contractor early in the spring. Finally, document all existing damage with clear photographs before any construction begins.
