Masonry repair dispatched by a project manager
General Masonry Construction, Inc. is the contractor. Ask the sister yard if you only need brick or limestone.
Our process
- 1 The Full Breadth of the Craft Our work encompasses repointing weathered joints, replacing spalled brick, rebuilding chimneys, leveling steps, and restoring stone sills and lintels. Each material and period demands its own methodology. A 1920s brick bungalow and a 1970s ranch are not restored identically — and never should be.
- 2 Older Homes Require Restraint Many the established northwest suburbs homes were built before 1960, and their soft, hand-fired brick necessitates breathable lime-based mortars. Hard modern Portland mixes trap moisture and ruin vintage brick faces within a few winters. We match mortar composition, color, and tooling to the original work.
- 3 When Repair Cannot Wait A leaning chimney, loose parapet, or fallen brick is not a cosmetic concern — it is a hazard to anyone below. We prioritize urgent structural repairs and can stabilize dangerous masonry promptly. If something on your home seems amiss, have it inspected.
- 4 On-site Assessment Schedule a site visit in Schaumburg and nearby IL communities.
