Metro Masonry went the extra mile and installed drain tube below the walkway and extending out away from the entry way. The work was done in a professional manner. The results are spectacular! Metro Masonry is top notch!

Mr. Louis Bonanno returned my call immediately, set up a time to meet at the job site, and did meet me on time. He was knowledgeable and experienced and freely shared his knowledge. He provided an estimate that seemed high at the time and I did get lower estimates so ended up hiring someone...

"We spent over $15K and they did a great job on the backyard (4-5 stars), but the front yard is a completely different story (1.5 -2 stars). When we reached out the first time, the owner stated he would come back & overseed. Never showed up. We contacted them several times & sent text/pictures/video to show the concerns ... spotty grass and & 2 trees that did not take. They stated there was a "miscommunication" & they would come back & take care of it (contract states work 100% guaranteed), but now 5 wks and still no show."

FAQs for projects in Yarmouth, ME

Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. Types of concrete applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.

The cost of masonry work varies widely depending on the type of masonry along with common cost factors like size, complexity, location, and season. Most exterior masonry work done in freezing temperatures tends to cost more because of the preparation and protection involved to keep the masonry from freezing before the mortar cures properly. The average price ranges per project or square foot for different types of masonry include:

Brick wall (fence, garden wall, etc.): $10–$45 per square foot
Natural stone wall: $40–$110 per square foot
Manufactured stone veneer: $20–$40 per square foot
Brick home exterior: $10–$30 per square foot
Brick siding: $3–$10 per square foot
Stone siding: $35–$50 per square foot
Brick step replacement: $20–$30 per square foot
Brick wall repair: $20–$40 per square foot
Chimney repairs: $160–$750 per project
Tuckpointing: $5–$25 per square foot

A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:

Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings
Freestanding stone or brick walls
Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces
Cement block basement or crawl space walls

Masonry work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.

Two types of masonry are veneer masonry and solid masonry. Veneer masonry is thin brick or stone material attached to the face of a building. With veneer masonry, the walls support the weight of the masonry products rather than the masonry being built on a concrete footing. Solid masonry is a wall or other brick or stone structure built on a concrete footing, and the masonry supports itself.
