Brick, Block, and Stone Construction and Repair

Brick, block, and stone work includes new brick and block walls, structural block for foundations and additions, natural and manufactured stone veneer, and retaining walls. It also includes repair of existing masonry that has cracked, shifted, or weathered.

Lexington, KY homeowners and builders need this work for a simple reason: the ground and the weather. The region's clay soil and freeze-thaw winters put constant stress on brick and block walls. Left alone, that stress causes cracking, bowing, and water intrusion that gets worse every season.

#1 Masonry LLC starts by inspecting the existing structure. We look at how the wall is built, where it is moving, and why. When we repair, we match brick, block, or stone to the original material so the fix blends in instead of standing out.

Whether it is a new wall, a veneer upgrade, or a structural repair, we build it to last. That means solid footings, proper drainage behind walls, and clean mortar work that holds up through Kentucky weather.

Brick, Block, and Stone Work: Frequently Asked Questions

  • What's the difference between brick, block, and stone work?

    Brick and block are structural building materials used for walls and foundations. Stone work can be structural or a decorative veneer applied over block or framing. 1 Masonry works with all three, often combining them, such as a block foundation finished with a brick or stone veneer.

  • How do I know if my brick or block wall needs repair?

    Common signs are cracks in the mortar or brick, a wall that leans or bows, crumbling mortar, or water stains on the interior side of the wall. Any of these should be inspected before the damage spreads.

  • Can you match the brick, block, or stone on my existing home?

    Yes. Matching the color, texture, and size of existing brick, block, or stone is part of every repair or addition. 1 Masonry sources materials to match what's already on your home whenever possible.
