Frequently Asked Questions About Masonry Work

We work with all major masonry materials including concrete masonry units (CMU), architectural brick, natural stone, glass block, and specialty masonry products. We select materials based on structural requirements, aesthetic preferences, and Weatherford climate conditions. All materials meet or exceed ASTM standards for commercial construction.

Proper drainage is critical for masonry longevity. We install weep holes every 24-32 inches, provide proper flashing at all openings and rooflines, use drainage planes behind veneers, and ensure proper slope away from walls. In North Texas clay soil conditions, proper drainage prevents hydrostatic pressure and extends wall life significantly.

We recommend mortar types based on application and exposure conditions. Type N mortar for general above-grade work, Type S for structural applications and brick veneers, Type M for foundations and retaining walls. We also use polymer-modified mortars for improved durability in Weatherford's climate. All mortars meet ASTM C270 specifications.

Yes, we specialize in masonry restoration including tuckpointing, crack repair, veneer replacement, and structural reinforcement. Our restoration work preserves historical character while improving structural integrity. We work with architects to match original materials and maintain building aesthetics during repair projects.

Expansion joints are essential in masonry to accommodate thermal movement and prevent cracking. We install joints at regular intervals (typically every 20-30 feet depending on exposure), at changes in wall height or thickness, and where different materials meet. Joints are filled with appropriate sealants and backer rods for long-term performance.

For structural masonry, we use steel reinforcement including rebar for reinforced masonry, joint reinforcement for crack control, and post-tensioning systems for high-load applications. All reinforcement meets ASTM standards and engineering specifications. We provide proper cover and corrosion protection for durability.

Masonry timelines depend on project scope and complexity. Simple partition walls may take 1-2 weeks, while full building exteriors can take 4-8 weeks. We provide detailed schedules and coordinate with other trades to ensure efficient project flow. Weather conditions in Weatherford can affect working days and curing times.

Absolutely. We provide both structural masonry for load-bearing walls and foundations, as well as decorative masonry for facades, accents, and architectural features. Our team has experience with complex architectural designs including curved walls, custom patterns, and specialty installations. We work closely with architects to achieve design intent while maintaining structural integrity.
