"Brandon and his crew at Foundation 1st LLC did an amazing job installing underground drain lines at my property. They were fast, efficient, professional, and paid incredible attention to detail throughout the entire project. One thing I really appreciated was how careful they were working around all of my rare Japanese maples and landscaping. They took the time to protect everything and even reused the existing sod so well that you can barely tell the yard was ever dug up. It’s hard to find contractors that care this much about both the quality of the work and the appearance of the property afterward. Highly recommend Brandon and his company."

Very professional and definitely knew what he was doing. I will call them for any future plumbing needs and would recommend them as well."

"We appreciated the thoughtful analysis of our issue and the recommended solution for stabilizing a porch that had shifted. Our project manager, Charlie Lawson, was responsive at every turn. The team of experts that executed the work (described as "a lot like heart surgery") took great care in communicating how the project would ensue. Levi, Tommy and Branden were efficient, professional, and careful. The outcome exceeded our expectation."

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.
