"Ty came out and after talking to me and taking some measurements, since the whole house was on a tilt from front to back, respectfully suggested that it would cost too much money to repair and that it was probably not worth it on an older home. He suggested that if we can live with it, that we should just do some cosmetic repairs. He even made some suggestions on how best to make these repairs by not just spackling, but actually replacing sections of drywall since the points were already weak. I really appreciated the honesty and feedback on how best to proceed."

"Excellent job. They came out and gave me ideas, provided a plan and an estimate. Work done turned out great. Three of the smaller plants did not look healthy after about 4 months and the promptly replaced them. Would highly recommend them for your landscaping needs."

"We are very happy with the installation. We were looking to extend our patio and Jose and crew have done a wonderful job connecting to our existing concrete patio. They were prompt and very patient waiting for it to dry enough for them to match the finish. They cleaned up great as well."

"I had some settling issues with my foundation, and Jacob from FSS did a thorough evaluation of the problem. I had already had six different companies come by, so I was getting familiar with the routine. What impressed me about the FSS solution was that they could actually stabilize the foundation, putting it on piers that would not shift in the future, unlike the other companies. When the installation crew arrived (Thomas, Timothy and Kennen), they brought along some really impressive galvanized steel hardware. The installation crew was clean and very meticulous about the details, making sure everything was installed correctly. After the foundation was stabilized and leveled, another crew came to do a polyfoam injection under the foundation to fill the air gap left by leveling the foundation. This way the entire foundation is supported, and not resting just on the edges. Overall, I was very pleased with the work. They were certainly not the cheapest, but then, you often get what you pay for."

"We needed an evaluation of our cracked foundation. They took measurements and established a baseline for annual checkups. They will come back next year to see if there has been any additional movement that would require repair. I offerd to pay them but they said their evaluations are free - no charge. Excellent customer service before, during and after the evaluation!"

"On Wednesday Caser showed up on time to look at our needs for a new brick pathway and a new back door step. Three workers arrived, again on time, to do the work on Friday. They worked hard all day and did a terrific job and made certain everything was cleaned up and the work done to our satisfaction. I would highly recommend "New Ground Services"."

"My pier and beam house was built around the end of WW2 and the bathroom looked like it had been there. I had foundation issues due to old water damage and the floor felt like it was on the verge of collapse. The foundation was done relatively quick and raised the bathroom 1.5 inches. A few cracks but nothing a little putty and paint couldn't fix. They were in and out in about 3 days and you wouldn't even know they were there with the way they respectfully took care of everything. Next was the bathroom remodel. The bathroom had to go down to the studs and the frame. All supports were reinforced and pipes replaced. To help assist with expediting this, have a list of everything you want ahead of time and start ordering asap. Supply lines are still not the best and was able to swap some materials out to comparable on the shelf replacements. Keep the concept in mind but be flexible with the details and you won't be disappointed. This stalled completion by a week but overall was completed in a little over 3 weeks. The house does not shake the pictures when you walk thru it now and the bathroom sparkles and shines vs being a scary place to walk into. I highly recommend Hercules Foundation and Home Remodeling. Allen Alexander is a warm individual to work with and put me at ease to face the challenges ahead. The pricing was very fair for the amount of work that was done. Felix and Mike the storyteller made the foundation work feel like it was a walk in the park. Rodger the carpenter was with me every step of the way on the bathroom and wrangling the ordering and the trades teams like a boxing champion. Dave the tile master was cutting edge with his impromptu design. They were all very pleasant to work with, very professional and highly skilled at what they do and they do it well. Respectful of working in your home and kept it clean like if they were working in their own home. If you are interested in having this type of work done, I would highly recommend talking with these folks as you are gathering your bids. Every time I walk by my new bathroom, I stop and smile."

FAQs for masonry work projects in Barker, TX

Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. Types of concrete applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.

The cost of masonry work varies widely depending on the type of masonry along with common cost factors like size, complexity, location, and season. Most exterior masonry work done in freezing temperatures tends to cost more because of the preparation and protection involved to keep the masonry from freezing before the mortar cures properly. The average price ranges per project or square foot for different types of masonry include:

  • Brick wall (fence, garden wall, etc.): $10–$45 per square foot

  • Natural stone wall: $40–$110 per square foot

  • Manufactured stone veneer: $20–$40 per square foot

  • Brick home exterior: $10–$30 per square foot

  • Brick siding: $3–$10 per square foot

  • Stone siding: $35–$50 per square foot

  • Brick step replacement: $20–$30 per square foot

  • Brick wall repair: $20–$40 per square foot

  • Chimney repairs: $160–$750 per project

  • Tuckpointing: $5–$25 per square foot

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

Masonry work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.

Two types of masonry are veneer masonry and solid masonry. Veneer masonry is thin brick or stone material attached to the face of a building. With veneer masonry, the walls support the weight of the masonry products rather than the masonry being built on a concrete footing. Solid masonry is a wall or other brick or stone structure built on a concrete footing, and the masonry supports itself.
