"J&E Masonry completed a stone wall repair as well as a small concrete entrance repair for me, both with outstanding effort in all aspects related. Time to come out after initial contact, view desired work and provide an estimate was remarkable. Start dates were provided and time frames for completion maintained. Work was meticulous and cleanup exceptional. Thank you Edgar and Micheal-recommend without reservation."

"The coordination between the Driveway Lady and her partner/husband was not good. It felt like she was making promises and he was trying to cut corners. He tried to skimp on landscape fabric and on rolling (compacting) the stone until I insisted otherwise. I discovered after they left that his men had dumped about a ton of our old gravel base in the arborvitae bushes that line the far end of our long driveway. They also spread the stone unevenly, so that now, just a month later, weeds are coming up in some spots. While I personally like these people, I would not recommend them."

"They arrived promptly when expected and executed the work to my complete satisfaction. The injection holes for the lifting foam don't stand out too badly and they only had to drill a few of them. The sidewalk was lifted to its proper height. After the lift, the sealing was applied and coated with quartz sand, more attractive than the original black material."

"From the beginning of the project to the end, Basement Gurus made the process feel painless. They gave me a clear understanding of what remedies were necessary to fix my foundation and ensured that all of my expectations would be met. The contracted workers were timely, considerate, clean, and personable. I would strongly recommend Basement Gurus for any waterproofing work and will be using them as often as necessary in the future."

"Dry Tech recently completed a major waterproofing project in my finished basement, addressing water seepage along roughly 60 linear feet of wall. The crew removed the lower section of drywall and most of the studs, then broke out about 18 inches of the cement floor to install stone and a perforated pipe before finishing everything with fresh cement. All materials were brought in and out through a small basement window, which was no small feat. The team worked hard and handled the entire process professionally. They installed plastic barriers to keep cement dust from spreading through the house, stayed organized, and kept the workspace as clean as possible. From my first meeting with the salesman to the final cleanup, every step was handled with care and competence. I highly recommend Dry Tech for anyone dealing with basement water issues."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

In Reading, homes built before 1940 may have irregular stone foundations, lime mortar, or visible settlement, all of which can complicate masonry work. Watch for cracks, water stains, or evidence of past flooding—especially near the Schuylkill River. Properties on hillsides or with high water tables often require specialized drainage and grading strategies to ensure a stable foundation for new masonry projects.

Helpful?

When hiring in Reading, prioritize masonry contractors with proven experience in local stone types like brownstone and limestone, and familiarity with Reading’s unique soil and drainage challenges. Ask for references from recent area projects and confirm their knowledge of local building codes. Contractors with strong supplier relationships and a track record of timely, high-quality work are best suited for Reading homes.

Helpful?

In Reading, homeowners often overlook the impact of local clay soils and limestone bedrock, which can cause shifting if not properly addressed by a masonry contractor. Skipping drainage solutions, choosing materials unsuited for repeated freeze-thaw cycles, and delaying projects until late fall are frequent missteps. Failing to secure necessary permits or using incompatible mortar on historic homes can also result in foundation repair issues.

Helpful?

After masonry work in Reading, shield new surfaces from moisture and temperature swings for the first month, especially during freeze-thaw cycles. Apply a breathable masonry sealer within three months to guard against Reading’s wet climate, and plan to reapply every few years. Schedule a post-winter inspection for settling or cracks, promptly remove leftover mortar, and document all repairs for future reference and warranty claims.

Helpful?

In Reading, begin spring by checking for freeze-thaw damage, spalling, or efflorescence on masonry surfaces. Inspect drainage systems before summer storms, and assess mortar joints for wear during warmer months. In fall, reseal exposed masonry and check for gaps before winter. Throughout winter, monitor for new cracks or ice buildup, especially in areas prone to flooding or near the Schuylkill River.
