Tennyson Construction - Wet Basement Specialists is the leading basement waterproofing and foundation repair company in Southern Minnesota and Northern Iowa. In business since 1981, they have worked in over 4,200 basements. Our interior tiling system to repair wet basements is backed by our transferable warranty, transferable to future owners of the home. If the basement foundation has problems (cracked, buckled or bowed basement walls), Tennyson Construction can straighten, brace, repair or replace basement and foundation problems. We offer no obligation free estimates with no high pressure sales tactics. We examine what is going on, tell you what we would do to fix the problems, bid the project, and leave the decision up to you. We do our own work, without any subcontractors. We feel one of our biggest advantages of Tennyson Construction is that we are not a Franchise business (we can tailor the right solution to each type of basement problem - no incentive to push products and services that may not be needed to meet franchise quotas). The second is that we specialize in working in basements, so our focus is always on the basement problems and solutions to those problems. The third is we back our work. Finally, most of our customers' projects begin with referrals from other customers, real estate agents, building officials, insurance agents, cleaning companies, and plumbers. Our projects are done in less than four days with qualified basement professionals. If our proposals are accepted, usual payment for those projects is done upon completion. Our company takes pride in its work, and we are proud of our small-town, locally-owned, family-owned business. Our employees really enjoy working with customers, as they see the joy that a family has when they get to enjoy their basement even more after our work.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

If you want to avoid damaging your home's brick, you should always use a stain specifically formulated for masonry projects. These stains are designed to penetrate the porous surface of the brick and bond with it, unlike paints, which sit on the surface and are prone to peeling and flaking. Look for stains labeled for use on brick or other masonry surfaces. Avoid using regular paint on brick, as it will not adhere well and will likely lead to future maintenance issues. 

If you’re attempting to mix and pour your own mortar, expect to pay between $5 to $10 for an 80-pound bag of mix. The cost to repair mortar, however, can range from $300 to $500 for a 20-square-foot wall. The larger the area and the more extensive the repair, the higher the cost.

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

The material you use depends on how hard-wearing your steps need to be and what you want them to look like. The most common stone for exterior steps is bluestone. It’s hard-wearing and durable, and bluestone steps cost between $15 and $30 per linear foot. Limestone is also a popular option and is mid-range, costing $25 to $50 per linear foot. You should always consider the specific requirements of your project before ordering any materials.

Yes, brick houses are better insulated, because the bricks slow down the passage of air from the outside to the inside and vice-versa. This helps to stabilize the internal temperature of the home. When combined with proper residential insulation, brick houses are more efficient and better insulated than other types.
