"I highly recommend Marvin's Brick Pavers and here's why - Craftsmenship, value, and trustworthiness. My walkway sunk and was nearly a foot below the first step up to the front porch. A friend recommended Marvin's Brick Pavers because they built a beautiful backyard patio that I would compliment every time I visited their home. While I did get two other estimates, not only did the other providers pitch a lot of additional work I could neither afford, nor thought needed to be done, they couldn't meet to provide an estimate in a timely manner, did not guarantee their work, and their price points were much higher than Marvin's Brick Pavers. From cost estimate through project completion, Marvin's Brick Pavers were responsive, efficient, knowledgeable, and competitively priced. More than that, they are true craftsmen! They didn't just bring my walkway up to code, their work enhanced my house and property value, and they guarantee their work for five years! Most important, it was an effort for my elderly father to get up that first porch step for way too long, and I cried happy tears at the smile on his face when he effortlessly made the climb thanks to Marvin's awesome work. I never thought I could love a paved walkway, but I think I do!"

"The owner Ted lives down the street from me, and after seeing the work he has done to his own house, I stopped and asked for a quote on a concrete patio extension. His quote came in much cheaper than the one we received last year for the same project, and they were able to get it done within days (before my kid's birthday party). On top of this, Ted and his crew went above and beyond by replacing part of the existing sidewalk because he was not happy with how it looked trying to match up to my old shabby slanted walkway. We were extremely pleased with their work and even received several compliments during our party. Boulders Concrete will certainly be my first call on future projects, and I can highly recommend them to anyone in the area."

"The gentlemen that worked on our yard project were pleasant, professional, efficient, and did a wonderful job. Our project was not a large one for the contractor but was to big for us without equipment and more equipment. The owner/manager was great to work with. We wanted specific stone and that was easily accommodated. We accepted our quote and got on the schedule right away which was appreciated. We love the finished project! We tried to load pictures but each picture exceeded the 5MB limit."

"We were satisfied with the outcome of our retaining wall project. It took a little longer than we initially anticipated, but in the end, the final quality of the work was worth it. They installed two block walls, replaced and updated our downspout drainage system, and fixed the fence gate that sits behind one of the walls. They were friendly throughout."

"Central Wisconsin Excavating (CWE) did a fantastic job on our project. They built a solid, well-prepared foundation for our 80,000-bushel grain bin and graded our driveways perfectly to ensure water drains away from our buildings. Their attention to detail, quality of work, and professionalism really stood out. The site was left clean and properly finished, and everything was done right the first time. We’re extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend CWE to anyone needing excavation or site work done right."

FAQs for masonry work projects in De Forest, WI

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.
