New Constructions

We offer professional brick constructions where all lines of joints and bricks are good looking symmetry art. Only well done brickwork can serve their owners for years, because any cracks, loose brick or cast stone can short masonry lifetime even by half.

Repairing

As in all our services our biggest enemy is weather, that caused damaged by temperature changes, wind, snow and rain. Repairing cracks usually means getting rid of old ones and restoring them with new ones.

“Peter was very helpful throughout the process. Him and his team did a great job tuckpointing and fixing our condo building’s gutter. Their price was reasonable and they did not try to convince us to do additional work (like some contractors did). We were very happy with the quality of their work.”
