Our Services

From repairing cracked chimneys to building custom outdoor living spaces, we offer complete masonry services for homes and businesses in Macon-Bibb and throughout central Georgia.

Preserving Macon-Bibb's Historic Masonry Character

Here in Macon-Bibb, we take pride in our rich architectural heritage. From the historic homes in Vineville to the commercial buildings downtown near Cherry Street, our city features some of the most beautiful brick and stonework in Georgia. Many of these structures date back to the 1800s and early 1900s, built when craftsmanship was an art form.

Properties in Macon-Bibb often deal with specific challenges that come with our climate and soil conditions. The red clay soil common throughout our area can shift and settle, putting stress on masonry foundations and retaining walls. Summer humidity combined with winter temperature swings causes mortar joints to deteriorate faster than in drier climates. We see this especially in older neighborhoods where original mortar may not have been formulated for modern waterproofing standards.

Many customers in Macon-Bibb call us for tuckpointing and repointing services to restore deteriorating mortar before water intrusion causes serious damage. We also work extensively with homeowners who want to match the distinctive brick colors found throughout Macon-Bibb. The warm red and brown tones of local brick require careful color matching to maintain the authentic character of your property.

Whether you own a historic home near Mercer University or a newer property in North Macon, we understand the specific masonry needs of our community. Our team has worked on countless projects throughout Macon-Bibb, from foundation repairs in established neighborhoods to new construction in developing areas near Eisenhower Parkway.

Creating Outdoor Living Spaces for Macon-Bibb Homes

Your outdoor space should be just as comfortable as your indoor rooms. Here in Macon-Bibb, where we enjoy mild weather much of the year, investing in quality outdoor living areas makes perfect sense. We build custom stone patios, outdoor kitchens, and fireplaces that let you take full advantage of our beautiful Georgia climate.

The expansive lots common in neighborhoods like Shirley Hills and Bloomfield offer perfect opportunities for large-scale outdoor entertainment areas. We design and install everything from simple paver patios to elaborate outdoor kitchen setups complete with brick pizza ovens and stone seating walls. The key is proper base preparation to handle our soil conditions and drainage planning to manage our occasional heavy rainfall.

Many homeowners choose natural stone for their patios because it stays cooler underfoot during our hot summers compared to concrete. Flagstone and bluestone are popular choices that complement both traditional and contemporary home styles. For driveways and walkways, interlocking pavers provide durability and visual interest while allowing for proper drainage.

If you are thinking about adding an outdoor fireplace or kitchen, now is the time to start planning. We handle everything from initial design through final construction, including working with local building codes and obtaining necessary permits. Our outdoor fireplace and kitchen installations transform ordinary backyards into year-round entertainment destinations that increase your property value and your quality of life.

Our Process

Free On-Site Consultation

We start every project with a thorough on-site visit to your Macon-Bibb property. During this consultation, we assess the current condition of your masonry, discuss your goals and preferences, and answer all your questions. We take measurements, photographs, and notes about site-specific factors like drainage, sun exposure, and existing landscaping. This visit typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, and there is absolutely no pressure or obligation. We will provide honest recommendations about what your property needs, whether that is simple repairs or a complete rebuild.

Foundation Repair and Structural Masonry in Macon-Bibb

Foundation issues are more common in Macon-Bibb than many homeowners realize. Our expansive clay soil shrinks during dry periods and swells when it gets wet, creating constant movement that can crack foundations and damage structural masonry. You might notice diagonal cracks in your brick walls, doors that stick, or gaps between walls and ceilings. These are warning signs that should not be ignored.

We provide comprehensive foundation repair services including crack repair, underpinning, and waterproofing. For homes with crawl spaces, common in older Macon-Bibb neighborhoods, we reinforce deteriorating brick piers and improve ventilation to prevent moisture problems. Basement foundations, found in some areas near Wesleyan College and downtown, often need waterproofing and drainage improvements to handle our heavy spring rains.

Retaining walls face similar challenges from our soil conditions. Properties with sloped lots, especially in hillier areas around Ingleside and Rivoli, depend on properly built retaining walls to prevent erosion and maintain usable yard space. A failing retaining wall shows warning signs like leaning, cracking, or bulging. If you notice these problems, call us right away. Early intervention costs far less than waiting until the wall collapses.

Our foundation repair and waterproofing services protect your most valuable investment. We use proven techniques and quality materials to ensure lasting repairs that stand up to our local soil and weather conditions. Every foundation project includes proper drainage solutions because controlling water is essential for long-term stability in Macon-Bibb.

Chimney Repair and Rebuilding for Macon-Bibb Homes

Chimneys take a beating from weather exposure and temperature extremes. Here in Macon-Bibb, the combination of summer heat, humidity, and occasional winter freezes gradually deteriorates chimney masonry. Water is the biggest enemy. It seeps into small cracks, freezes and expands during cold snaps, and creates bigger problems over time.

Many customers in Macon-Bibb call us after noticing loose bricks near the chimney crown or water stains on interior walls around the fireplace. These are serious issues that can lead to dangerous situations like carbon monoxide leaks or chimney fires. We inspect every part of your chimney including the crown, flashing, flue liner, and brick structure to identify all problems before recommending solutions.

Sometimes partial repairs are sufficient, like replacing damaged flashing or rebuilding the crown. Other times, especially with older chimneys showing significant deterioration or lean, a complete rebuild makes more sense. We provide honest assessments and clear explanations so you can make informed decisions. Our work includes proper waterproofing and appropriate flashing details to prevent future problems.

If you use your fireplace regularly during winter, annual chimney inspections are smart preventive maintenance. Small repairs caught early cost far less than emergency work after major damage occurs. Our chimney repair and rebuilding services keep your home safe and your fireplace functioning properly for years to come. We serve homes throughout Macon-Bibb, from historic properties downtown to newer construction in North Macon and everywhere in between.
