"During his free inspection and estimate, Ian took the time to enlighten us about wood foundations and the problems he saw, one of which we'd ovelooked. During the repairs, Shane and Dominick were equally generous with explanations, and ended each day with a summary of work done and plans for the following day. All were very pleasant to deal with, and made the whole experience as painless as possible. Our county inspector, looking at the work on the problem Ian spotted, said it was lucky we caught it when we did, and assured us we were in good hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and highly recommend this company."

"This job was completed efficiently and professionally. A design specialist came to test and measure every detail for the project. The crew arrived with everything needed for the job. They worked very hard to install Waterguard in the concrete floors inside around the foundation to the sump pump basket. They also installed Geo-lock anchors to support a block wall that was bowed. This company has 36 years in business and provides excellent results and professional customer relations. Call Amer. Wtrwrks for a free estimate. You will not be disappointed. A wise investment of $11,270."

"I first called Crosstown concrete because of the great ratings found on Angies list. He was booked up through the winter so he recommended his son, Jeff. I am glad he did. Jeff came right out and met with us. We wanted a curved sidewalk with colored concrete along with the steps. We wanted something special to go along with our newly remodeled home. Jeff understood immediately what we wanted (unlike other contractors we had estimate the job). he was excited and gave us great input about the layout and design.
when we saw the finished job, he and his excellent crew blew us away. It exceeded our expectations.
after the job, one of his crew came on a Sunday and added black dirt and regraded the yard.
Excellent job!!
I will call him next spring to do some landscaping for me. I highly recommend Jeff Pietig for any concrete work"

Masonry FAQs, answered by experts

There are many things to look for when buying a brick house. Here are some of the key things you should pay close attention to.

  • Lintels: Look for cracks, holes, displacement, or corrosion

  • Mortar: Check to see if the mortar is old and crumbling, in need of repointing, or new. Also check to see if the mortar has a professional finish.

  • Walls: Check along each side of the house. If a wall is bowing outward, this indicates a severe issue such as foundation damage or that the walls are ready to fall.

  • Cracks: If there are stair step cracks in the brickwork, this indicates an unstable foundation.

Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:

  • Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles

  • Use of non-breathable sealants

  • High-pressure water cleaning

  • Improper installation

While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.

Not all cracks in brick indicate foundation problems. For instance, small hairline cracks can occur as a new construction settles. However, larger cracks are often a sign of a more severe issue. Indicators of a potential foundation problem include long horizontal cracks, "stair-step" cracks, vertical cracks that appear indoors, or any crack that widens at the top. Other signs of structural damage to look for are uneven floors and doors or windows that stick. These issues could be caused by problems with the soil beneath the home or an overgrown tree.

Costs depend on material type, labor, chimney requirements, and structural reinforcements.

Whether you’re installing brick siding over a traditionally-framed home or you’re using genuine brick construction to build, the biggest downside of a brick house is the higher cost you’ll pay for the materials and labor. Real brick construction also means your home build will take longer, as it’s more time-consuming to construct brick walls than it is to frame out your home.
