About Ames Masonry Pro — Masonry Contractors in Ames, IA

Our Masonry Experience

The 10+ years behind Ames Masonry Pro span the full range of masonry work this region demands: repointing aging mortar joints on older Ames homes, replacing spalled clay brick damaged by freeze-thaw exposure, restoring chimney crowns and firebox masonry, installing manufactured stone veneer and brick veneer with proper flashing and weep systems, building retaining walls with drainage aggregate and base preparation, and placing concrete flatwork with reinforcement and control joints.

That breadth matters because masonry problems rarely exist in isolation — a spalling brick usually points to a mortar or drainage issue, and a leaning retaining wall almost always traces back to failed drainage. Experience across repair, restoration, and new construction scopes means the cause gets addressed alongside the visible damage. The 10+ years figure reflects hands-on masonry experience; it is not converted into a fabricated founding year or company history.

How We Approach Masonry Work

Every project starts with assessment of the masonry condition — mortar joint depth, spalling, cracking, movement, drainage, and access — so the scope reflects what's actually happening on the wall, chimney, or hardscape. Material compatibility drives the plan: mortar matching to existing joints, correct removal depth for repointing, clay brick or stone that blends, and drainage solutions that address the water source.

From there, scope is defined and estimated based on real measurements and conditions. Preparation follows — grinding out mortar, removing damaged units, setting base and drainage for hardscaping. The masonry work itself uses appropriate reinforcement, flashing, weep systems, and control joints. Execution wraps with cleanup and a walkthrough so the property owner sees what was done and why, including any maintenance relevant to the material and Central Iowa exposure.
