"We want to thank Matt K and his crew who worked on our basement. They were very approachable and easy to communicate with whenever I had questions. The crew worked so hard and we were amazed at how quick and efficiently they got the job done. Their clean up was also the best experience I've had with any contractor. I almost wish they did other work around the house cause I would hire them again! Great team. Thank you so much for all your hard work. We can't wait to enjoy our basement again."

"I am amazed at The quality of their customer service. Before I became disabled, I was employed at the hospital for 28 years and I know how hard-working with the public can be. I really need to give a hats off and a pat on the back to (midstate Basement) systems they came in and did work on my basement and had to come back and adjust some things… Not one time did they roll their eyes or give me a hard way to go about it. Levi ,Judd, Ernest, Jonathan & Adrian were very friendly, courteous & Ernest, Levi and Judd always answered any question I give them and was quick to be of help and to get me scheduled in I would highly recommend Midstate Basements systems to anybody that needs any kind of basement or crawlspace work done. I had my basement done and I’m gonna have to have my crawlspace done in the future and they will definitely be the company I contact. You can’t go wrong by hiring them. Fast, friendly service, each and every time."

"I chose stay dry to help keep my basement from taking on water, because they offered a belt and braces solution rather than just a patch job. The foreman Chris was very helpful and knowledgeable. The work was thoroughly completed and they cleaned up after themselves well."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Prioritize a thorough foundation inspection as your first masonry work project. Defiance has heavy clay soils and high water tables that stress block and brick foundations. Address deteriorated mortar joints immediately to prevent water intrusion. Next, inspect your brick chimney. Repairing missing caps and deteriorated crowns prevents serious freeze-thaw damage and keeps your home safe from carbon monoxide risks.

Helpful?

When hiring for masonry work, watch out for quotes that skip matching the new mortar to your historic brick. A reliable contractor will outline cold-weather protection plans if working during OH winters. Be cautious if a professional ignores water management around your foundation or fails to mention necessary local permits. Always verify that your chosen specialist carries proper insurance and state registration.

Helpful?

Completing proper masonry work directly boosts your home's resale appeal by proving excellent maintenance. Buyers in Defiance pay close attention to foundation conditions due to local soil movement and flood history. Documented, permitted foundation repairs eliminate major buyer objections. Maintaining your exterior brick and repairing your chimney also ensures a smooth inspection process, protecting your property value and giving future buyers confidence.

Helpful?

Safety during masonry work requires strict attention to respiratory protection. Cutting or grinding brick creates hazardous silica dust, so you must wear proper masks and use wet-cutting methods. For any excavation, state law requires contacting the OH utility protection service beforehand to mark underground lines. Additionally, secure stable scaffolding when working on multi-story homes, and utilize proper heating enclosures during freezing weather.

Helpful?

A frequent mistake during masonry work is applying hard mortar on historic brick. Defiance experiences high freeze-thaw cycles, and using the wrong mix causes the brick to crack. Homeowners also patch foundation cracks without addressing the underlying heavy clay soil movement. You should always secure the required local permits for structural repairs and avoid tuckpointing when joints are frozen or damp.
