The biggest masonry issues we see in Providence County are water damage and freeze-thaw deterioration. Coastal moisture works its way into mortar joints, then expands when it freezes, cracking the mortar and loosening bricks.Chimney crowns often crack due to temperature changes, allowing water to penetrate the masonry structure. We also see spalling bricks where the face of the brick flakes off due to moisture and salt exposure from winter road treatments.Older properties frequently have repointing work that was done incorrectly with modern Portland cement instead of lime-based mortar. This creates a harder mortar that doesn’t flex with the building, leading to brick damage over time.
Yes, chimney liner installation is actually one of our primary services. Most masonry repairs involve liner work because the existing clay tiles are often cracked or the chimney was never properly lined to begin with.We install stainless steel liners for wood-burning fireplaces and appropriate liners for gas appliances. The liner installation includes proper insulation, connection to the appliance, and a new chimney cap designed to work with the liner system.Liner installation typically takes one day for straightforward jobs, though complex installations or those requiring significant masonry work might take longer. We handle all permits and inspections required in Providence County.
Most residential masonry projects in Clayville take 1-3 days to complete. Basic chimney repairs like repointing or crown replacement usually finish in one day. Fireplace rebuilds or extensive stonework might require 2-3 days.Weather affects scheduling since we can’t work in freezing temperatures or heavy rain. We typically schedule masonry work during favorable weather windows and will reschedule if conditions aren’t suitable for proper curing.Larger projects like complete chimney rebuilds or custom outdoor fireplaces might take a week, especially if we’re waiting for materials or permits. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the estimate process and keep you updated on progress.
We use materials and techniques specifically chosen for Rhode Island’s climate conditions. That means lime-based mortars for historic work, proper flashing details, and masonry sealers that actually work in coastal environments.Our crews are trained in both modern masonry techniques and traditional methods for historic restoration. We’re not just laying bricks—we’re building masonry structures that will perform properly for decades in Providence County’s challenging weather.We also handle our own cleanup and debris removal. Your property will be cleaner when we leave than when we arrived. Most contractors subcontract the cleanup, but we believe it’s part of providing complete professional service.
Matching existing masonry is one of our specialties, especially important for the historic properties common throughout Providence County. We source bricks and stone that match the size, color, and texture of your original masonry.For mortar matching, we analyze the existing mortar composition and create a blend that matches both the color and hardness characteristics. This is crucial because using the wrong mortar can damage historic brickwork over time.When exact matches aren’t possible due to age or discontinued materials, we can create custom blends or use weathering techniques to help new work blend naturally with existing masonry. The goal is seamless integration that preserves your property’s character.
