Masonry Contractor serving Grimes, IA

While much of Grimes is new, older neighborhoods near downtown and along Highway 141 have homes dating back decades. These properties need different services than newer construction. Tuckpointing is a common request here, as mortar joints deteriorate from Iowa's freeze-thaw cycles. Crumbling mortar not only looks bad but also allows water to penetrate behind the brick, leading to more serious damage. We carefully remove old mortar and replace it with new material that matches the original color and strength.

Chimneys in older Grimes homes also require regular inspection and maintenance. We check for loose bricks, damaged crowns, and deteriorating flashing that can let water into your home. Sometimes a simple repair handles the problem, but leaning or severely damaged chimneys need partial or complete rebuilds. Foundation repairs are another service we provide in established neighborhoods. Settling foundations can cause cracks in basement walls, sticking doors, and gaps around windows. We assess the damage, stabilize the foundation if needed, and repair cracks to prevent further water intrusion. Your older Grimes home deserves the same attention we give new construction. Quality repair work protects your investment and keeps your home safe and comfortable for years to come.

Business growth in Grimes means more opportunities for commercial masonry work. New retail centers, office buildings, and restaurants need professional facades that attract customers and withstand heavy use. We've worked on projects along Southeast Gateway Drive and near the Highway 141 corridor, installing brick and stone features that give businesses a polished, professional appearance. These projects require coordination with other contractors, strict adherence to timelines, and materials that meet commercial building codes.

Existing businesses also call us for repairs and updates. Maybe your storefront needs tuckpointing to freshen its appearance, or perhaps you want to add stone veneer to create a more upscale look. We understand that businesses can't afford long closures or disruptions, so we plan work carefully to minimize impact on your operations. Our commercial masonry team handles everything from small repairs to major construction projects. Grimes businesses deserve contractors who show up on time, work efficiently, and deliver quality results. Your commercial property represents a significant investment, and professional masonry work protects that investment while enhancing your building's appearance and value.
