Masonry Contractor in Toms River
Find out more about the skilled services our Toms River, NJ masonry contractors can provide.
Masonry at the Jersey Shore takes a beating. Salt air, wind-driven rain and winter freeze-thaw all work on mortar joints year after year. Toms River Stucco & EIFS has worked as a masonry contractor since 1985, building and repairing brick, stone and block for homes and commercial buildings.
This page lists every masonry service we offer. Each one has its own page with the details.
Brick, Stone and Block Services
- Brick pointing and repointing. We rake out failing mortar and replace it with a mix that’s softer than your brick. That way the mortar wears, not the brick.
- Brick masonry. Brick steps, stoops, walls and chimneys, plus replacing cracked or flaking brick.
- Stone masonry. Natural stone walls, steps, columns, fireplaces and stone veneer.
- Concrete block masonry. Block foundations, walls and piers, including foundations under raised homes.
- Exterior waterproofing. Stopping water outside your foundation and masonry walls, before it gets in.
- Thin brick systems. Real brick faces that go where full brick can’t.
- Cultured stone. Manufactured stone veneer in a wide range of colors and shapes.
- Brownstone restoration. Rebuilding worn brownstone surfaces.
Why Masonry Fails Here
Most masonry damage starts with water. Rain soaks into mortar joints. In winter, that water freezes and expands. Each cycle opens the joint a little more. Then bricks crack, stones loosen and steps start to shift.
Near the bay and the ocean, salt adds to the damage. As water dries out of a wall, it leaves salt behind. When that salt builds up inside a brick, it can push the face right off.
So a good repair does two things. It fixes the damage, and it finds where the water came from. A clogged gutter or a downspout dumping onto a stoop will ruin new work fast.
Masonry on Raised Homes
After Superstorm Sandy, many Toms River homes were lifted. As of October 2014, more than 150 homes here were under construction through the state’s RREM program. Many raised homes now sit on new concrete block foundations with flood vents.
Owners often finish those foundations with stone, brick or stucco. We do that work, and we plan it around the flood vents. The vents have to stay open to do their job.
Where We Work
As a local masonry contractor, we work all over Toms River, from Silverton and Gilford Park to North Dover and Pleasant Plains, and out to Ortley Beach. We also serve Island Heights, Pine Beach and nearby towns like Beachwood, Lakewood, Point Pleasant and Howell.
Stucco and masonry often meet on the same wall. If yours needs both, see our stucco and EIFS services too. Or start at our Toms River stucco and masonry home page.
How a Masonry Job Starts
- We look at the masonry and the drainage around it. Gutters, downspouts and grade tell us a lot.
- We tell you what’s causing the damage. Then we tell you how to fix it.
- You get a written scope and a free estimate. No surprises once work starts.
- You see the match. Ask for a small test area before full repointing. It’s the best way to judge color and joint style.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you repair brick chimneys?
Yes. We repoint and repair brick chimneys. Chimneys take weather on every side, so we check the whole stack, not just the leak.
Can you match my old mortar?
We match the sand, color and joint style as closely as we can. New mortar usually looks a little different at first and blends in as it weathers.
Do you work on raised homes?
Yes. We repair and finish block foundations on raised homes, and we keep every flood vent clear.
Are you open on weekends?
Yes. We work weekends from 8 AM to 7 PM and weekdays from 6 AM to 9 PM.
Do you build steps and walkways?
Yes. We build and repair brick and stone steps, walkways and patios.
