"Ron and Roy did an excellent job on my project, starting with power cleaning all brick, porch and tuck pointing all needed areas and REPLACED 5 lentils over windows. When I was getting estimates, one competitor actually threw up his hands and said, "Heck, I would hire THEM if I were you!" Glad I did. I've since hired Yellow Rose for a small concrete job at another home. Great guys, many years of experience, enjoyable to work with."

"Matt K and his crew did a very thorough job with interior and exterior work to waterproof our foundation and basement. They were running behind on another job so were a bit delayed in getting started but made up for it by working through part of the weekend to finish up."

"Exceptional Concrete Lifting Service by Foundation Systems of Michigan I recently had FSM perform concrete lifting (also known as or polyjacking) on my cracked and sinking walkway and driveway, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the entire process was seamless and professional. Here’s what stood out: Flawless Results: My walkway and driveway is now perfectly level! The difference is night and day, and it has completely eliminated the tripping hazard that was present before. The work looks clean, and the structural integrity is fully restored. Professional and Skilled Team: The crew, led by Jason R, and his great assistant Chad D arrived promptly, were courteous, and clearly experts in their field. They took the time to explain every step of the process."

"Erie Homes completed a basement waterproofing for us on 11/20/23. We were impressed and pleased by the professionalism and communication at every phase of the project. Brandon expertly explained the Erie Homes waterproofing system, sump pumps, materials, and warranty and provided us with a quote and pricing details. Having being burned by projects in the past, we came back with a long list of questions and conditions. Brandon answered every single one, made sure that we were completely satisfied with the terms, and added our notes to the contract. Project manager Gage and the team that came to our home was quick and professional. They periodically filled us in on the progress and communicated any changes or concerns. When the project was completed, they walked us through and made sure we were happy with the work before leaving. Since finishing, we have had several rainy weeks and a completely dry basement. Based on the product, work, and customer service, we will be highly recommending Erie Homes to anyone needing basement or waterproofing work."

"They are professional and thorough, but there is really no wiggle room if you would like something differently done. Choices in booklet are pretty basic, not a lot of options (for flooring types, door style, trim) This company is like the Anderson Windows of basements. (No doubt they spend a lot on advertising; There is a reason they are the top result when searching!) Expect to pay quite a bit more than you planned, but I knew if I chose them it would be done and warrantied for everything. Sometimes you just want to sign and not worry, and I would definitely pick Finished basements plus if you are in that situation and have the budget."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Address horizontal foundation cracks and leaning chimneys immediately, as Monroe experiences severe frost heave. Perform below-grade masonry work before winter to prevent rapid water intrusion during freeze-thaw cycles. Wait for dry weather in the spring to handle cosmetic tuckpointing and surface efflorescence treatments. Treat any defect that allows water entry as an emergency to protect your home from extensive structural damage throughout the cold season.

Helpful?

Older Monroe homes built in the early 1900s feature soft historic brick and lime-based mortars. Using modern cement on these materials causes rapid spalling during MI winters. Homes near the River Raisin face seasonal hydrostatic pressure and require specific flood vents. Clay-heavy soils expand and contract, causing foundation cracking that complicates masonry work. Properties within the historic district also face strict exterior material guidelines and require formal review.

Helpful?

Keep Type S mortar on hand for exterior masonry work, as it withstands the frequent freeze-thaw cycles in MI. Store hydraulic cement to address seasonal water intrusion, especially if your home sits near the River Raisin floodplain in Monroe. You should also keep efflorescence treatments available to clean white salt deposits caused by lake-effect moisture. If working between November and March, have cold-weather additives ready to ensure proper curing.

Helpful?

Implement fall protection systems when working six feet or higher above the ground. Homes built before 1978 contain lead-based paint, requiring strict containment practices. You must use protective equipment to prevent inhaling hazardous silica dust when cutting or grinding old concrete. When using heating equipment for cold-weather masonry work in Monroe, ensure proper ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide buildup and serious fire hazards in enclosed spaces.

Helpful?

Simple tuckpointing takes one to three days of active work, while chimney repairs require two to five days. Foundation parging takes two to four days before backfilling. Expect delays from spring rain, as Monroe receives significant annual precipitation. Permit processing adds five to ten business days. Peak season runs from April through June, which extends contractor wait times by two to four weeks for masonry work.
