"08-AUG-2025 Issues began immediately after hiring Pro Foundation & Masonry. During the estimate, I told Foreman Bobby there was no mortar in the cinder blocks. He gave a quote that I believed included proper mortar. On Aug-12-2025, I raised the issue again?he said he was ?focused on the damaged area.? When digging, a missing footing section was found, and Bobby quoted $22,500, which I thought was too high. Though he fixed some cracks, major ones in the cellar were ignored. They used the wrong mortar (not S mortar as discussed) and left sloppy drippings inside the wall. I sent photos on Aug-23; Bobby replied on Aug-25 saying the floor was dirt. Promised cleanup on Aug-30 never happened. I followed up repeatedly?no one came. They even left a dangerous cinder remnant that I tripped on. A section of wall was filled with concrete instead of block?looks unprofessional. They say one thing, do another. I?m very unhappy with their work and service. They're gonna fix the two crack on my fieldstone foundation. The manager Rey came and he felt really bad that the foreman left in this way they left it. He was really pretty readsonable."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Recessed or crumbling mortar joints allow water infiltration that expands during freezing temperatures, causing full brick displacement. White salt deposits on brick surfaces signal active moisture intrusion. You must address horizontal basement wall cracks immediately, as they indicate dangerous lateral soil pressure. Even a minor forward lean in a retaining wall causes rapid structural failure during the spring thaw in Newton.

Helpful?

Secure all required building permits before starting structural masonry work to avoid liability issues. Hire licensed professionals to handle hazardous materials like lead paint and asbestos, which are common in older homes. Contractors must contain falling debris carefully, especially on narrow lots in Newton. During the colder months, professionals apply specific heating and protection measures to comply with MA safety regulations.

Helpful?

Schedule masonry work in the fall before the ground freezes, as materials require temperatures above 40 degrees to cure properly. Inspect your home in the spring to spot damage from winter freeze-thaw cycles. You should also check your foundation and retaining walls after major nor'easters hit Newton. Homes built in the late 1800s feature lime-based mortar that is past its functional lifespan and requires immediate replacement.

Helpful?

Full-height brick chimneys are highly exposed to harsh weather and require frequent masonry work. Retaining walls on hilly properties face lateral soil pressure and frost heave. Foundation walls built with rubble stone or early poured concrete also deteriorate over time. Finally, check your exposed stoops, steps, and front walkways, as aggressive winter road salt runoff throughout MA accelerates surface damage on these horizontal surfaces.

Helpful?

Homes built before 1950 are strong candidates for masonry work, as the original brick and mortar deteriorate over time. Properties with mature trees close to the foundation require inspections for root-related stress. If your house sits in a flood-adjacent area near the Charles River in Newton, assess your foundation for moisture damage. Check for visible slope and drainage issues across your yard to prevent retaining wall failures.
