One Trusted Crew for Every Masonry Need
True masons since 1982 — not a handyman that dabbles in brick.
Chimney Repair & Rebuilding
When brick spalls, the crown cracks, or the stack leans, we repair or fully rebuild — matched to your home.
- Partial and full chimney rebuilds
- Storm, wind and lightning damage
- Crowns, caps, liners and firebox work
- Inspections, sweeping and leak stoppage
Garage & Window Lintel Repair
Cracks or sagging in the brick above a garage or window usually mean the lintel needs support. We repair the masonry — not the door hardware.
- Brick rebuild above garage and window openings
- Lintel reinforcement (including seismic bolts when missing)
- Cracked or sagging masonry secured and re-laid
- Color-matched mortar so the repair blends in
Fireplace, Firebox & Flue Repair
The parts you cannot easily see: firebox, smoke chamber, flue liner and damper. We rebuild and reline so a wood-burning fireplace drafts safely and a chimney fire has nowhere to leave the flue.
- Firebox rebuilds with proper firebrick
- Smoke chamber parging
- Stainless flue relining
- Damper repair and top-sealing dampers
- Camera scans when a look up the flue is not enough
Gas Fireplaces & Gas Logs
Madewell installs Majestic gas fireplaces and inserts plus Grand Canyon and White Mountain Hearth gas logs — after the firebox and flue are ready. This is install work, not a web store.
- Majestic inserts and see-through gas fireplaces
- Grand Canyon and White Mountain Hearth gas logs
- Opening, damper and liner checked first
- Mason-finished surround, not a drop-in afterthought
Wood-Burning Stoves
Madewell installs Buck Stove wood-burning stoves — freestanding, fireplace inserts and the Homesteader cook stove — after the hearth and flue are ready. This is install work, not a web store.
- Buck Stove Model 91 and Model 21, freestanding or insert
- Homesteader wood cook stove
- Level 2 flue check when a stove is added
- Mason-finished hearth, not a drop-in afterthought
Wooden Chimney (Chase) Repair
Siding-clad chases leak when the chase cover rusts. We rebuild from the cover down so water stops rotting the framing.
- Chase cover replacement
- Rotted framing and siding rebuilt
- Flashing and weather-sealing
- New cap and storm collar
Tuckpointing & Mortar Repair
Tuckpointing grinds out failed mortar and packs in fresh, color-matched joints before water destroys the brick.
- Walls, chimneys, foundations and gables
- Color- and joint-matched mortar
- Historic and soft-brick mortar mixes
- Removal of bad previous patches
Masonry Leak Repair & Waterproofing
We find the real source — a failed sill, an open jamb, missing wall ties, or mortar — then rebuild it and protect the brick with breathable waterproofing.
- Window sills, jambs and opening leaks
- Wall ties where veneer walks off the frame
- Breathable waterproofing (not paint)
- Efflorescence and water-damaged brick
Brick, Block & Stone Repair
Cracked walls, spalled brick, columns and retaining walls restored with materials matched to your home.
- Cracked, bowing and stair-step walls
- Brick and stone replacement
- Columns, piers and veneer
- Retaining and garden walls
Foundation & Settlement Repair
When a house settles, brick cracks along the foundation. We rebuild and repoint the masonry side of the problem.
- Foundation brick crack repair
- Settled section re-leveling
- Stair-step crack stabilization
- Sealing water and pest entry points
Steps, Porches & Walkways
Crumbling steps are a trip hazard and the first thing visitors see. We rebuild them solid, level and safe.
- Brick step and stoop rebuilds
- Porch and patio masonry
- Flatwork and walkway repair
- Trip-hazard corrections
Glass Block Repair
Glass block is mortar-set masonry, not a window product. When a unit cracks or the joints leak, we replace the failed block and rebuild the joint — we do not tear out a sound panel.
- Cracked or broken block replacement
- Failed mortar joints rebuilt
- Leaky glass-block walls and windows
- Pattern-matched replacement units
Outdoor Kitchens & Custom Stonework
The same crew that rebuilds chimneys builds outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, walkways and stone veneer to your space.
- Outdoor kitchens and cooking centers
- Fireplaces, fire pits and seating walls
- Natural stone walkways and patios
- Stone veneer and custom features
Pool Coping Repair
Pool coping is the masonry rim at the water's edge — brick, stone or precast. The joints fail long before the units do. We re-set what has moved and repoint for wet service.
- Brick, stone and precast pool edges
- Loose or settled units re-set and levelled
- Failed joints cut out and repointed
- Cracked or missing section rebuilds
- Trip-hazard corrections at the edge
